Im just [A]tryin to be a father, raise a daughter and a son
Be a [E]lover to their mother, everythin to everyone
Up and [D]at em bright and early, Im all business in my suit
Yeah Im [E]dressed up for success, from my head down to my boots
I dont [A]do it for money, theres bills I that I cant pay
I dont [E]do it for the glory, I just do it anyway
Pro[D]viding for our futures, my responsibility
Yeah Im [E]real good under pressure, being all that I can be
And I cant [A]call in sick on Mondays when the weekends been too strong
I just [E]work straight through the holidays, and sometimes all night long
You can [D]bet that I stand ready, when the wolf growls at the door
Hey Im [E]solid, hey Im steady, hey Im true down to the core.
And I will [A]always do my duty no matter what the price
Ive [E]counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice
Oh and [D]I dont want to die for you, but if dyins asked of me
Ill [E]bear that cross with honor, cause freedom dont come free.

Beside my [F#m]brothers and my sisters, I will proudly take a stand
