A I'm just tryin to be a father, raise a daughter and a son E Be a lover to their mother, everythin to everyone D Up and at em bright and early, I'm all business in my suit E Yeah I'm dressed up for success, from my head down to my boots A I don't do it for money, there's bills I that I can't pay E I don't do it for the glory, I just do it anyway D Providing for our future's, my responsibility E Yeah I'm real good under pressure, being all that I can be A And I can't call in sick on Mondays when the weekends been too strong E I just work straight through the holidays, and sometimes all night long D You can bet that I stand ready, when the wolf growls at the door E Hey I'm solid, hey I'm steady, hey I'm true down to the core. A And I will always do my duty no matter what the price E I?ve counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice D Oh and I don't want to die for you, but if dyin's asked of me E I'll bear that cross with honor, cause freedom don't come free. A I'm an American Soldier an American F#m Beside my brothers and my sisters, I will proudly take a stand D When liberty's in jeopardy, I will always do what's right A B I'm out here on the front lines, sleep in peace tonight D E A F#m D E American Soldier, I'm and American, Soldier. A An American Soldier an American F#m Beside my brothers and my sisters, I will proudly take a stand D When liberty's in jeopardy, I will always do what's right A B I'm out here on the front lines, sleep in peace tonight D E A F#m D E A American Soldier, I'm and American, an American, an American, Soldier.
