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 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 weekends been to 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 dyin'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 line,
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 line,
So sleep in peace tonight.

American Soldier...I'm An American
An American...An American Soldier
