Military Man Lyrics - Singles - Jessie James

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
