Testi

Verse 1)
Graduation cap, tossed to the summer sky
Traded that old Ford for a uniform, standin' tall and proud
Signed the papers at seventeen, just a restless kid from town
Chasin' somethin' bigger than the fields where I was bound
Momma cried, Daddy clapped my back and grinned
Said, "Go get 'em, son," as the new life began
(Chorus)
From a Friday night football game to team threes fightin' creed
Traded in my youth for a nation's need
September mornin' changed the world, made me understand
The weight of a trident in my own two hands
Three tours in a foreign dust, a debt I can't outrun
Now I'm sittin' on the porch swing, beneath a different sun
(Verse 2)
Came back a Senior Chief, with stories I don't tell
Saw the best and worst of man, been through a kind of hell
Traded in my body armor for a flannel shirt
Felt more at home in this old chair than a world of hurt
Started a family, watched two babies grow
Held my little girl's hand, helped my boy learn what he knows
(Chorus)
From a Friday night football game to team threes fightin' creed
Traded in my youth for a nation's need
September mornin' changed the world, made me understand
The weight of a trident in my own two hands
Three tours in a foreign dust, a debt I can't outrun
Now I'm sittin' on the porch swing, beneath a different sun
(Bridge)
Heard the screen door slam, my son walked up to me
Got that same look in his eyes, bold as he can be
He's got his uniform on, ROTC patch on his chest
Says, "Dad, I wanna serve," and I just nod and put him to the test
Said, "Are you sure, son?" and he looked me straight and said, "Yes"
(Outro)
He's chasin' a destiny, a flag of red, white, and blue
Just like his daddy did, when he was new
Yeah, just like his daddy did, standin' on sacred ground
I'm a Senior Chief no more, just a proud father now.
Just a proud father now.
