Soldier’s Daughter Lyrics by Caitlynne Curtis

2010

[Verse 1]
He's up early in the mornin'
And I'm out of my bed too
He's on a bus to the front lines
And I'm on a one to school
He's off to fight the battles
For which he's praised and he's condemned
I'll write a letter
And send it off to him
[Verse 2]
Mom tries not to show it
But sometimes I see her crying
He doesn't think I know it
But I see it in her eyes
And daddy, you'd be proud of me
Because I never fail
To shower her with kisses like
The ones I'm about to mail
[Chorus]
And I'm proud of you, daddy
Please be careful over there
Don't worry 'bout me and mommy
Tonight we'll say our prayers
Some folks say this war is right
Other's say it's wrong
I'm not sure, I'll just be glad
When you finally make it home
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I'm the soldier's daughter
'Cause I'm the soldier's daughter
[Verse 3]
Me and mom are waiting
As they take him from the plane
Through tears our hearts are pounding
Like thunder in the rain
As we make it over where
A black-draped coffin lies
I'm given back the letters and
My heart is filled with pride
[Chorus]
And I'm proud of you, daddy
Please be careful over there
Don't worry 'bout me and mommy
Tonight we'll say our prayers
I know you give us the right
To argue what is wrong
I'll lay the letters on the flag
Dad, you're finally home
[Post-Chorus]
And I'm the soldier's daughter
I'm the soldier's daughter
I'm the soldiers daughter
There's a soldier's daughter
