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 in my business 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 weekends 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 front lines,

sleep in peace tonight.

American soldier, I'm an American,

An American,

An American Soldier.
