Song lyrics

Send "American Soldier" ringtones to your cell

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 'em, bright and early
I'm all business in my suit
Yeah, I'm dressed for success 
From my head down to my boots

I don't do it for money, there's still 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

And I can't call in sick on Mondays
When the weekend's been too strong
I just work straight through the holidays
And 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 dyin's asked of me
I'll bear that cross with an 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 frontlines, 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 frontlines, so sleep in peace tonight
American soldier, I'm an American
An American
An American soldier

18 posts	Actually in WW2 a lot of kids forged there age to make them look older. Mostly 16 and 17 year olds. But I heard some where there were some 15 year olds maybe even 14 year olds. Like before awesome song been hear for a while but still a fantastic song. Especially now that the war in Iraq is heating up again. Not to mention the terrorists in Afganistan are starting again too. I may not be a soldier. But, this song make's me wish I was. I heard this quote before, "The best way to keep your girl safe. Is to keep the fight far away from her." That's the message in this song. They fight and die for us so that we don't half to. God bless our soldiers, God bless Toby Keith, and most importantly God bless America.

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal man, i hope everyone feels this way about us, like the song says nobody in the service wants to die for anybody, but if it is asked that we die for all of you, then we will, because thats what we are here for! thanks, toby, and please support our troops!
