Still a Soldier

He's got a corner lot on Dogwood Drive

A year old truck and a nine to five

Comes home at night to a pretty wife

With a baby due

He'll sleep in on Saturday

Cut the grass if it don't rain

After church he'll watch the game

And have a beer or two

He'll stand up

When he hears the anthem

And that won't ever change

He's still a soldier

His blood runs red, white and blue

He put away his gun and boots

But he still believes

The American Dream

'Til his last breath he'll always be

A soldier

He's still a soldier

He's on his couch for the news at ten

He'll see those places that he's been

And when a brother falls

there's a part of him that does too

And if they called and needed him back

Oh, he'd be on that plane

He's still a soldier

His blood runs red, white and blue

He put away his gun and boots

But he still believes

The American Dream

'Til his last breath he'll always be

A soldier

He don't wake up anymore

When he hears thunder

Oh, but even if he lives

To be a hundred

He'll still be a soldier

He's still a soldier

He's put away his gun and boots

But he still believes

The American Dream

'Til his last breath he'll always be

A soldier

He's still a soldier

He's still a soldier
