I signed up 'cause Daddy's work truck couldn't pay my way through school
Chance to be like Pa to give my all for the red, white and blue
It was Fort Bragg for eight long weeks, mud, and blood, and achin' feet
Bonds with new brothers shipped overseas

We get up each mornin', knowin' this coud be the end
But we still put our boots on and do it all again
We all love livin' free and we'll keep Old Glory flyin'
Or die tryin'

Three tours in the sun and sand can steal a man's soul
Takin' fight from faceless enemies is gettin' old
And you ain't seen a fight 'til you're fightin' for your life
With your brothers side by side in Korengal

We get up each mornin', knowin' this coud be the end
But we still put our boots on and do it all again
We all love livin' free and we'll keep Old Glory flyin'
Or die tryin'

My little girl, my whole world, she's growin' up in pictures
I'd give anything to be on a plane and be back home there with her

We get up each mornin', knowin' this could be the end
But we still put our boots on and do it all again
We all love livin' free and we'll keep Old Glory flyin'
Or die tryin'
Or die tryin'
