Keith, Toby - American Soldier Lyrics
I'm just trying to be a father
Raise a daughter and a son
Be a lover to their mother
Everything to everyone
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 future's my responsibility
I can't call in sick on Mondays
When the weekend's been too strong
I just work straight through the holidays
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 wanna die for you
But if dying's asked of me
I'll bear that cross with 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 will 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 will always do what's right
I'm out here on the front lines
So sleep in peace tonight
American soldier, I'm an American, an American, an American soldier!

DEARLY, REGARDLESS OF YOUR SINS!! God bless you all!
I miss you every day, Dad. You volunteered, not drafted, both to join the Army and to fight in Vietnam in 1970 as a Screaming Eagle. "Rendezvous with Destiny"!
Nothing like the start of a new war to tickle that patriotic muscle right brothers?
Just hits different!! GOD BLESS AMERICA

Thank you to all the armed forces God Bless America where dreams can come true.💓
For every American soldier that will be deployed to Iran. Our thoughts go to you.
I wanna say if you have family in the military you can understand and for those of u that don't try and say u understand because you don't
Prayers to all the soldiers and families that are going through this and also who have gone through as well may God watch over them and protect them and keep them strong my Grandpa and sister and other family members have server as well
My great grandfather fought in World War I and my great uncle fought in World War II. Also, my 1st cousin once removed fought in Vietnam (in the USMC)
america the greatest country of all time
By what metric?
@Rat. Resistance by the simple fact we have true freedom of course other countries have freedom but it aint the same ive travled round the world and trust me not everyone really knows the definition of freedom and also by the fact that stupid liberals like you can ask stupid ass questions and know one will put you down for doing so
Sending thanks and prayers to all of our soldiers. May you all return home safely to your families.
We have soldiers that are being going to war down to Iraq I pray that they all come back home safe my buddies are going down there as well I pray that God brings them back home safe.
Isaiah Vang my dad, and brother just got shipped out over the weekend to Iraq
Who’s listening before wwiii
My great grandfather was an expert marksman in the army in WWII, he had 13 successful beachhead landings, his first stop was GuadaCanal (spellcheck), he was my best friend as a child. He died when I was about 5, I miss him to this day. He was one HELL of a MAN. They don’t make them like they used too.
My brother left for Camp Pendleton San Diego Marine Recruit Depot December 16th, 2019.
Leave a like to send a prayer and encouragement to him!
GOD BLESS THESE TROOPS AND EVERYTHING THEY DO! THEY DESERVE THE UPMOST RESPECT!!

Hello!!
My dad was in the us army in the Vietnam war and my husband was a marine in 1990s my family was on both sides in the American civil war
Don't tread on my flag
No likes needed
Shout out to our soldiers. Thank you guys for the sacrifice.
I really LOVE patriotic songs!! My dad was a WW II vet. He installed this pride in all of us kids! Love you Dad! Miss you so much! Wish I could hug you one more time!
I have served the army and now i been a veteran
DAMN t Keith put on a few extra lbs! Time for some pt like all American soldiers mad respect for anyone who is in uniform protecting our freedom thank you for all of the sacrifice ya make so we lay around watch YouTube and type comments USA military is the best in the world be hands down
Expect the don't protect our freedom. The protect the Neo Cons pocket back and are the biggest simps.
America the land of Family Court judges who steal children and put them with pedophiles.
I miss my grandfather and I’m so proud to come from a long line of military family.
I signed the dotted line. Just waiting to go to basic

Don’t like the American army since they’ve destroyed the Middle East and other countries but love this song
coldste the Middle East destroyed themselves
Shokkerz Iraq you lot destroyed. You had no business going there but good old Uncle Sam and the weapons manufactures need to keep that money flowing
@Proud Yankee American soldiers are the pawns of Saudi Arabia/Al Qadia in Syria and Yemen. American soldiers are t he biggest cucks around read the Afghan papers.
God bless those who fought for us!!!
expect that they don't fight for us they fight for the deep state and the Neo Cons if anything they hurt us.
Thanks for setting free Europe on 6th of June 44
#Belgian guy
Nicolas Bertrand thank the Russians and Britain for setting Europe free. Us Brits and the Russians stood alone until America finally entered the war, and even then us Brits had pushed the Germans out of North Africa and the Russians where making gains in the east by the time d day started
God bless all that has severed for our country and severing now,thank you!🇺🇸
I support our troops because I was one too but I can’t wait for the day that you get to write the song about them all coming home.
Keith is nothing but a fat propagandist.
Yes sir
I’m 15 and getting to the age when I decide if I will join the army any advice. I have a lot of friends who a graduating this year and have committed to the army.
Try ROTC in school first, if still an option, then consider Air Force. Armies fly or float to the battle area.
You can take college courses in any branch of the military.
I wish so bad to be an American soldier it I am 340 pounds 6 foot 3 there is no greater wish in my life than to serve my country hopefully one day I will be able that all I wish
dedicated to my grandpa who passed away in Normandy 1944...went out fighting and never gave up an inch for us to be free.
Thank you
War is screams and Blood and coffins, and to those that of their own free will endure this on my behalf.
THANK YOU!
Even though you do not know me you stood in front of me.
THANK YOU!
not on mine they work for the neo cons and the deep state they waste their lives and the lives of the innocents the bomb in Yemen for Al qadia.
That's a good man taking care of his family. I wish I had children. Maybe some day. If it doesn't happen, I'll still be here to support you
Spent 13 mos in a little shit hole in Nam and still don't tell anybody.
the 9K unlike are mostly likely some terrorists who hate USA
This song is for my pappy i miss him so much he passed away in june 14 n his birthday was june 17
I love u papa n miss u so much i wish i could of said my good bye n hug u one last time idc if u were die or not
Oh, another Uncle volunteered for 5 tours in Nam.
Dad and Uncle retired Navy. I'm an Army Vet.
As a daughter of a strong mother who decided to joint the army to provide for her two young kids I actually hate this song because my mom was deployed in Iraq during the war and I always thought that my mom would come home in a flag covered casket as her friends did and I remember every time this song came on the radio I would always cry because this made me think of it more but I was so happy when my my mom came home safe and sound which is not true for a lot - too many - of the soldiers who have been shipped out the same way mom was but I just wanna say always keep in mind when the soldiers who have the ultimate sacrifice for this god forsaken county who honestly doesn’t deserve it. Please keep in mind the veterans who came home and were homeless because of the way we treated them just please be kind to one another.
I miss it...
For all of my family that served in the Revolutionary war,the Civil War,The war of 1812,WW1,WW2 Vietnam war,Afghanistan thank you
True Americans
Toby Keith you beautiful A-hole. Thank you for this song.
IT DON'T GET NO BETTER THAN THAT! THANKS TOBY!
Ben Franklin said it best..... the reason that reasonable men can sleep in peace is that there are unreasonable men willing to do violence on his part
We are the wolf prowling at every door! Liberty has always been in jeopardy, from the same government who sends the men to get slaughtered for profit.
Hoo-ah, soldiers.
My Dad served in Germany during WWII, and got called back to go to Korea.....I followed in his footsteps as best as I could....
Americans are dying only for Petroleum, and they're proud of it ... I don't understand
My Lord>> This Song Brings Tears To My Eyes When I Hear This Song>>> From A Disabled Veteran!!!! God Bless This Country!!!! I Am A American Soldier>>> Amen!!!!
My husband passed recently and he was talking to our sons who served in the military and he made a comment that if we could get rid of the politicians and the politically correct people and let the soldiers do there jobs things we be a lot better. He was very bitter about when was in Vietnam and even worse how all the men and women who served there where treated when they came home. My sons say this song is about there father in a sense.

GOD BLESS DONALD TRUMP!
My brother is in the nave as an amazing American soldier to me and my family
This song really hits me hard. It’s so beautiful, a great message, Toby describes the hard life of being a soldier. I’ll say it, due to medical issues I couldn’t serve our country, and it broke my heart. I come from a military family. But even being stuck as a civilian, and being a proud American, I’ll stand by our brothers and sisters. Those who fight to keep us safe. I’m no soldier, but I’ll support them any way I can, and pray that they all come home safe.
RESPECT THE VETS
I'm joining the Army in a couple weeks
You that dislike this song are the ones with no pride or backbone to represent this country but you'll suck up the rites it affords you.
My grandpa was in the navy and I'm going to be in the airforce
My grandpa was in the military police and my dad was almost in the marines
Both my brothers in Korea and Vietnam. My dad and uncles in WW II my nephews in Desert Storm
I LOVE HIM
There ya go Darth from one vet to another, thank you for your service and sacrifice I know of too many friends of mine got left in the dirt, love ya bud!

If you think your family losing you , your kids growing up without you and you getting PTSD is worth fighting for billion dollar corporations getting richer at the expense and lives of Americans then become an American soldier
Disabled vet
Moms 4 uncles in WW2:
2 at Normandy
1 paratroop
1 on Iwo mountain top, for the first flag
Dad, Army: on alert, cuban missle crisis
Me, Air force, European theater: alert, marine barracks bombing
I'm a vet still bound by oath.
Please don't thank me for my service:
Average of 22 soldiers commit suicide a day.
Thousands left homeless.
Sub-standard VA care.
Please, dont thank me for my service, my battle isnt done.
It wont be done, until those numbers reach zero.
It wont be done, until we no longer need "veterans choice" and other programs, just to survive.
It isnt about being treated as special, its about being the same.
Remember, we love you.
My battle isnt over... yet!
