Artista: Josh Gracin He used to play in Daddy's uniform With the stripes across the sleeve And he knew when he was all grown up What he was gonna be He used to like to ambush Every careless cat or dog That he the nerve to cross the Battle lines that he had drawn (Chorus:) And even though he didn't know What his dad was fighting for He was proud to be the other little soldier In this war The phone rang in the middle of the night When they called his dad to go Kissed him and his mom good-bye He said, God I love you both Now I know that it's a lot to ask Of such a little man But hold the fortand I'll be home As quickly as I can (Repeat Chorus) (Bridge:) A wall could not begin to hold the names of all the kids Who gave the greatest sacrifice that any child could give It was the first time he'd ever seen A flag from up that close And he watched them as they folded it So careful and so slow As they gave it to his mother He knew what he should do He raised his little hand And gave his dad one last salute (Repeat Chorus) Oh yeah, yeah
