Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I'm a soldier of society
Everyday battles fought by folks like me
Standing up for all that we believe
Just a soldier of society
Down in the trenches, we all look the same
In the end, you won't remember my name
I might pour your coffee, get under your car
I might press your shirt or tend your bar
Teach your kids, get them home from school
Build your house, pump your fuel
[Chorus]
I'm a soldier of society
Everyday battles fought by folks like me
Standing up for all that we believe
Holding the line
I ain't that much different than you
I do the job that I'm paid to do
When I go they'll find somebody new
It's just a matter of time
Till then I am just a soldier of society
[Verse 2]
Closing ranks when one of us falls
We do our duty when duty calls
After coaching the team, come home at night
Barely got time to change my mind
Give my wife a kiss, tuck in the kids
Then I'm off for the midnight shift
[Chorus]
I'm a soldier of society
Everyday battles fought by folks like me
Standing up for all that we believe
Holding the line
I ain't that much different than you
I do the job that I'm paid to do
When I go they'll find somebody new
It's just a matter of time
Till then I am just a soldier of society
[Bridge]
And I'm proud of who I am
Passed down to me man to man
Earned every inch through sweat and strain
Won't be the weak link in the chain
[Chorus]
I'm a soldier of society
Everyday battles fought by folks like me
Standing up for all that we believe
Holding the line
I ain't that much different than you
I do the job that I'm paid to do
When I go they'll find somebody new
It's just a matter of time
Till then I am just a soldier of society
[Outro]
