American Soldier

It kinda describes what I want to do....=)

Toby Keith/Chuck Cannon)

I’m just tryin’ to be a father, raise a daughter and a son
Be a lover to their mother, everythin’ 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 money, there’s bills I 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 weekend’s 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 lines, sleep in peace tonight
American Soldier, I’m and American, Soldier.

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 lines, sleep in peace tonight
American Soldier, I’m and American, an American, an American, Soldier.

That song made me cry the first time I heard it. And I remember I heard it at your house and it almost made me cry again....but I think you made it play on purpose because you find it humorous to see me in my "train wreck" state of being. (as I repeat i my head..."I support Jeffers' descions, I will not phisically harm Jeffers, Jeffers is a friend, not food...")

Jeffers~ I SO caught that last artical, was that aimed towards me? If it was, it's not that I can't let things go, I just will miss you and I know you are right about how I don't do well with change-I don't-I may never change in that respect, but I truly do and always will support you in all you do and you've never escaped my prayers every night. Please understand that I'm not being bitter and synical, I just care.

I never have thanked you for making such a sacrifice for what you beleive is right. It shows alot of character and courage, and I respect that and love that about you, so thank you!
