Tim Rawson - Daddys Little Boy

Its the night before I say goodbye
To my youngest son
He leaves tomorrow for a foreign land
To chase bad guys on the run
I know he knows what this means
Deep down in his soul
He said yes as he raised his hand
Now his life has a new role
Its not like he wants to go
But he feels that he must
Theres so much going on before his eyes
So much wrong and unjust
He'll fight his way to help this land
Keeping us all free
A good man at twenty one
So full of bravery
Just keep this in mind son
We're rooting for the flag
Thats what makes it all worthwhile
Never be afraid to brag
Heres to you and all of em son
That have given up so much
You'll be in our prayers every night
You're the only ones this country trust
