American Soldier

Trying to be the best I can be,
A lover to everything & everyone,
Up and at em' bright and early,
I'm dressed up for success,
From my head down to my boots,
I don't do it for the money,
I don't do for the glory,
I just do it anyway,
Yeah, I'm real good under pressure,
Being everything I can be,
I can't call in sick on Monday,
When I've party way to hard,
I work straight through the holidays,
Sometimes all night,
You can bet I'll stand ready,
When I get that call,
I'm solid, I'm steady hey I'm true down to the core,
I will always do my duty,
No matter what the price,
I know the cost,
I know the sacrifice,
I don't want to die for you,
But if dying asking me,
I'll bear that cross with honor,
Cause freedom don't come free,
I'm American soldier, an American,
Standing by my brothers and my sisters,
I'll proudly make a stand,
When liberty's in jeopardy,
I'll do what's right,
I'm here on the front line,
Making peace tonight,
Just being an American soldier!

I know this sounds like Toby Keiths song "American Soldier" But I didn't write this my friend that is in the Marines wrote it! he asked me to put it up here becasue he is proud of what he does. just remember that the men and women lay their lives down for you!!
