All their families back home All they ever want is to have them back But they have a duty and a pride And they will never give up on them Secure your weapon and your mind Stand up straight, be ready to fight We are at war 'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain He does what he must, his honor is at stake He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration He is a soldier at heart Fight hard, no retreat Do your training right and you will succeed When the bombs are blowing at your feet You lose a fellow man, you will still proceed When the captain's screaming out in rage "Stand up soldier get in place, no turning back" Lock and load, here they go Hoist the colors, off they go They are at war 'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain He does what he must, his honor is at stake He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration He is a soldier at heart They are fighting a war overseas And there is a chance they won't come back Hear the preacher saying, "Heaven's got their back The angels are marching by their side God is with them when they fight" ♪ 'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain He does what he must, his honor is at stake He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration He's a soldier at heart He's a soldier at heart
