Military Man

Military Man by Jessie James
School is out, where to now?
I'm packin' up, headin' South
One last box, one last look around.
I remember being so excited,
Brand new friends that were so inviting.
That's the way it's been since I was young.
And I loved nothing more,
than seeing my daddy in his uniform.
CHORUS:
I'm the daughter of a military man
It's a way of life
And I understand
And I'm so proud to say, it made me who I am today.
I hope down the road I find a real good man
Who's done half the things that my daddy has
And it's a beautiful thing, my sweet American dream, yeah...
We laid on our backs, looking up at the sky,
Watching f-15's scream on by
While me and my brother and sister would play outside
Shopping at the Commissary, Dancing at the Military Ball.
Yeah, we did it all...
At 5 o clock when the anthem plays...
You could hear a pin drop on the whole base...
CHORUS
I'm the daughter of a military man
It's a way of life
And I understand
And I'm so proud to say, it made me who I am today.
I hope down the road I find a real good man
Who's done half the things that my daddy has
And it's a beautiful thing, my sweet American dream, yeah...
Oooh yeah yeah
Home is where you hang your hat
Yeah, that's what Mama says,
And I'm fine with that
CHORUS again
