Lyrics:

Took a redeye from LA to see my family

Struck up with a soldier who was coming home for a week

He hadn't seen his newborn girl except a picture on the internet

And his voice cracked as he told me she'd just taken her first steps

Two days in Atlanta, mama pulled me aside

Said darling I can see you've got something heavy on your mind

Said mama, what does this all mean and how am I to sleep

When a soldier pays the dearest cost so the rest of us are free

Pray child for the men and women who

Keep on keepin' on for the red, white and blue

Oh everyday you live and breathe and see that eagle fly

Don't forget who keeps our dreams alive

There's a picture on the mantel of my dad in uniform

But he doesn't talk much bout his time in the war

He said, baby girl, there's some things I'd just as soon forget

Cause I held the hand of my best friend, while he took his last breath

Now, don't let it stop you from living out your life

Knowing that a soldier puts it all on the line

You just go out there and tell 'em that you're proud

Cause what they give to you and me we couldn't ever live without

Oh, (those) boots in the desert sand

To put freedom in our hands

So every single day you gotta

Pray child for the men and women who

Keep on keepin' on for the red, white and blue

Oh everyday you live and breathe to see the eagle fly

Don't you forget the ones who keep our dreams alive

Don't forget who keep our dreams alive
