American Soldier (美国士兵) - Country Big Band

I'm just trying to be a father

Raise a daughter and a son

Be a lover to their mother

Everything to everyone

Up and at then bright and early

I'm all business in my suit

Yeah I'm dressed up for success

From my head down to my boots

I don't do it for the money

There's bills that I can't pay

I don't do it for the glory

I just do it anyway

Providing for our future's my responsibility

Yeah I'm real good under pressure

Being all that I can be

I can't call in sick on Mondays when the

Weekend's been too strong

I just work straight through the holidays

Sometimes all night long

You can bet that I stand ready

When the wolf growls at the door

Hey I'm solid hey I'm steady hey I'm true

Down to the core

And I will always do my duty no matter

What the price

I've counted up the cost

I know the sacrifice

Oh and I don't want to die for you

But if dying's asked of me

I'll bear that cross with honor

'Cause freedom don't come free

I'm an American soldier an American

Beside my brothers and my sisters

I will proudly take a stand

When liberty's in jeopardy

I will always do what's right

I'm out here on the front lines

Sleep in peace tonight

American soldier

I'm an American soldier

Yeah an American soldier an American

Beside my brothers and my sisters

I will proudly take a stand

When liberty's in jeopardy

I will always do what's right

I'm out here on the front lines

So sleep in peace tonight

American soldier

I'm an American

An American

An American soldier
