NineteenNumber on his back
Voted captain of his high school football team
Took us all the way to
StateGot a scholarship to play down in
TennesseeSaid he could run, he could duck
He could throw, he could go
Like you never seen
NineteenOn the day those twin towers came down
His whole world turned around
He told 'em all, "Y'all, I can't play ballThere's a war on now"
So he marched right in with a few good men
And joined the
MarinesNineteen
He's the boy next door
He might've carried your bags at the grocery store
Now he's somebody's son in a hole with a gun
In some foreign land
Trying to hold on to his
American Dreams, nineteen
There's a sniper out there in the dark somewhere
And a soldier down
Need someone who can run, who can duck
And go get him out
It takes one good man to raise his hand
Take one for the team
How 'bout you, nineteen?
He's the boy next door
He might've carried your bags at the grocery store
Now he's somebody's son in a hole with a gun
In some foreign land
Trying to hold on to his
American Dreams
NineteenBrought him home today
With the big parade down on main street
Gave him a purple heart, a silver star
Soldier gave a speech
Said, "He could run, he could duck, he could throwHe's the one who rescued me"
Said, "He could've played for Tennessee"
Um, number nineteen
He was nineteen
