American Soldier Lyrics
Performed by Toby KeithReview The Song (184)
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 futures, 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 dying's asked of me,
I'll bear that cross with an 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'll always do what's right.
I'm out here on the front lines, 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'll always do what's right,
I'm out here on the front lines, so sleep in peace tonight.
American Soldier,
I'm an American,
American,
American Soldier.

I served with the US Navy Jan 1997 to Nov 2005 & with the Air National Guard Jan 2006 to May 2011. I'm a proud American and everyone that joins up to defend our Great Nation, I thank you. Keep our Nation FREE from Government take over and keep the Tradition going. Every man & woman that joins shows the world that we will defend what we believe in. FREEDOM!!!
To proud soldier | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/23/11
Thank you for you service and dont worry about the haters. There will always be those super left wing people that just get there kicks off of dissing whatever they are told to by the left wing media. Just know that there are people that cut for you and are incredibly proude of you for your service i couldnt imagine being away from my family and risking my life and also missing my childs birth for serving my country. I dont have a child but just remember you are fighting for my neices freedom to walk down the road without having to worry about being attacked for just wanting to live there lives. Words cannot express the appreciation for what you are doing for this country and the lives you are saving. As Bill O'reily says you are a true patriat for what you are doing. I would do it myself but they wont let me do it because of my past life that i left behind. But if i could i would be right there by your side fighting for americas freedom. and for all those people that say the war doesnt do anything... when is the last time we had a major terrorist attack in the states. You are doing an amazing thing and i hope you the best. Be careful i know a 20 year old that just lost his life in Afganistan fighting for me and my family and i could not be more appreciative for the altimate sacrifice he gave for us, he is a true patriot keep it up and be careful you are in my prayers for real take care and come home same. best of luck and once again thank you for you service and your risk and for our country. God bless America. And to the person i just read hating on toby keith. That man has raised more money and sacrificed so much of his time with uso shows to support our troups and be there for them and he does not have to do it. Toby Keith is a true patriot so you need to stop hating on the man he is a great man that just wants to help in any way he can. God bless the USA!!!
My Dad | Reviewer: Dylan Harvey | 12/14/11
My dad is an American Soldier. He's been in the military for over 20 years now. He always puts his country first. Whenever I hear this song, I cry because it reminds me of him. I love my dad, and this song sums up his whole adult life.
My Cousin | Reviewer: Tori Chesteen | 11/11/11
My cousin who is my friend is going to be serving in the Navy. I love him to death and I don't want to go bt when i hear hear this song i am tinking of him and I cry. Thank you to all of the soldiers that are fighting for for us and God bless you, too.
My big Brother | Reviewer: S.S. | 11/12/11
Im 17 and my oldest brother,at 25 is in afghanistan now for the second time.He has three kids,an amazing wife and a suportive family at home waiting for him.Everytime i listen to this song i cry and think of how incredibly true it is and how proud i am to be his sister.
My love | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/4/11
My boyfriends an American soldier....and I couldn't be more proud of him. He's my life. Deploying to afghanistan for the second time (4th deployment overall) again next august and even though it's a year away it already seems so close and I'm dreading it. This song always makes me think of him because it's so like him.
Ashley harrison | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/27/11
Im 13and my daddy is is in the army. I heard this song on my dads 3rd tour, over in Afganastan. When i listen to it(and its on my phone) i cry. Its hard when he is away and all i can do is pray and hope god returns him safely. Im really proud and one day i might even join but i still got 4 years so i got a lot of thinking to do.
proud mom | Reviewer: donna riley | 8/17/11
i am the mother of a soldier who has been deployed to iraq 3 times. this song makes me cry but it slso brings a smile to my face. I am so proud of my son and all the other men and women that are giving up so much for me. thank you thank you so much
For the ones who are protecting my family and I | Reviewer: Carson | 6/24/11
I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the heroes that give their time and lives in this conflict we are caught in, that was forced on us when we were attacked on our soil. I don't care what any fool says, you men and women are the backbone of America. The greatest fucking country on earth, and if you disagree with me, you can blow it out your ass. My father served for 23 years with the USMC. His father, Was a Vietnam vet. All the way back to the rev war we have given blood to defend this land, and I am proud of it. Everyone that comments on here and says that they will give everything for this land and way of life, god bless you. Pretty soon I will be at the front with you. You can count on me. My only regret is that I have but one life to give for my country.
