American Soldier (lyric)

American Soldier
An American soldier in a foreign land
He's kneeling down on one knee with a rifle in his hand
Asking the Good Lord to stay by his side
He's cold and he's tired, and he ain't ready to die
He's an American soldier
An American soldier
American soldier on the line
No, he don't wanna be there, but he's not afraid to fight
He's just one mortal man, trying best as he can
To do the thing he knows is right
Standing up for his country, and his American way of life
He'll be back home, he knows, now, in no time at all
If he can just make it through the night
He's got a wife, back in Houston, and a little boy that just turned one
And what he wants the most, right now, is just to hold his son
He wasn't there to see his first steps
His wife's home, alone, raising him all by herself
Without her...
American soldier
Her American soldier
American soldier on the line
No, he don't wanna be there, but he's not afraid to fight
He's just one mortal man, trying best as he can
To do the thing he knows is right
Standing up for his country, and his American way of life
He'll be back home, he knows, now, in no time at all
If he can just make it through the night
He's an American soldier
An American soldier
American soldier on the line
