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
