�GOT YOUR BACK�
�I am a small precious child, my Dad�s been sent to fight�
The only place I see his face is in my dreams at night.
He will be gone too many days for my young mind to keep track
I may be sad but I am proud, My Daddy�s got your back.
I am a caring Mother. My son has gone to war.
My mind is filled with worries I have never known before.
Everyday I try to keep my thoughts fro turning black.
I may be scared, but I am proud. My son has got your back.
I am a strong and loving wife, with a husband soon to go.
There are times I�m terrified in a way most never know.
I bite my lip, and force a smile as I watch my husband pack.
My heart may break, but I am proud�My husband�s got your back.
I am a Marine�Serving proudly, standing tall.
I fight for freedom, yours and mine, by answering the call.
I do my job while knowing the thanks it sometimes lacks,
Say a prayer that I�ll come home. It�s ME who�s got your back.�
