Military Man - John Parr

From the day I enlisted

To the day that I check out

Got somethin' deep inside me

That life just can’t kick out

I got somethin' I believe in

A country that I love

I swear I will defend her

With the strength of God above

Over and over I do what I can

Shoulder to shoulder I’ll stand

I’m a Military man

Yes I am

I was standin' in the bar room

When trouble walked in the door

Mindin' my own business

But I’d seen their kind before

Well the biggest one came over

Started chewin' on my ear

Talkin' down my country

Then he spat in my beer

I felt the power surge through this right hand

He and his devil’s were damned

By a Military man

Don’t mess with a Military man

Don’t mess with a Military man

I ain’t nothin' special

I am just a man

There’s a line you can’t cross

I drew it in the sand

If you stand against me

I will not back down

I will fight for freedom

I am duty bound

Duty bound

Duty bound

I’m a Military man

Yes I am
