American Soldier Lyrics

Toby Keith

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 up 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
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 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

Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear this song.I have a son in the military so this song really hits home. Toby is truely a wonderful man giving his time to entertain the troops and singing for what he believes in. Thank you to our soldiers for their sacrifice to this great country and to Toby for putting it out there.

This is an amazing tribute to soldiers everywhere. They risk their lives everyday just trying to do whats right. Never forget the fallen and have the living in your hearts.

I love this song so much. My dad retired from the military, air force,, and though, being a teenager, i may disagree with him at times, i appreciate everything he's ever done and thank goodness that he is such a good influence on my life. I think this song gives a great shout out to many others like him. Amazing is all I can say.

I love this song. My brother & youngest son are in the military. Quite a few family members also have served or are still serving. I know that they are putting they're lives on the line for us americans to have what we have and our freedom. Please let God keep them safe.
