American Soldier

I'm just trying to be a father
我只想做一个父亲
Raise a daughter and a son
养育一对儿女
Be a lover to their mother
与他们的母亲相爱着
Everything to everyone
坚信我为人人 人人为我
Up and at 'em, bright and early
早出晚归 披星戴月地工作
I'm all business in my suit
当我西装革履时
Yeah, I'm dressed up for success
穿着也像个成功人士
From my head down to my boots
从头到脚

而我现在做这个不是为了金钱
I don't do it for the money
战争的代价是我不能承受的
There's bills that I can't pay
我现在做这个不是为了荣誉
I don't do it for the glory
我只是必须要这样
I just do it anyway
保障我们的未来是我的责任
Providing for our future's my responsibility
压力之下我的表现还不错
Yeah I'm real good under pressure
我将尽我所能
Being all that I can be
我甚至无法在周一报病号

尽管我已经忙碌了一个周末
And I can't call in sick on Mondays
我执勤的时间包含一个个假期
when the weekends been too strong
有时也包括晚上
I just work straight through the holidays
你知道门口的狼啸近在咫尺 我仍矗立
And sometimes all night long
我牢不可破 我坚定不移 我忠于命令
You can bet that I stand ready when the wolf growls at the door
我将一直承担我的责任 无论代价是什么
Hey, I'm solid, hey I'm steady, hey, I'm true down to the core
我已经预料到代价 我也知道必有牺牲

也许我并不想为你而死
And I will always do my duty no matter what the price
但如果死亡在召唤我
I've counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice
我会让荣耀支起十字架
Oh, and I don't want to die for you
因为自由从来不会没有代价
but if dyin's asked of me
我是个美国大兵 一个美国人
I'll bear that cross with honor
我自豪地站在这里 与我的兄弟姐妹同在
'cause freedom don't come free
当自由受到侵害 我永远坚持正义

此刻我就在前线
I'm an American soldier, an American
在安宁的夜晚睡去
beside my brothers and my sisters I will proudly take a stand
美国大兵 我就是美国大兵
when liberty's in jeopardy I will always do what's right
一个美国大兵 一个美国人
I'm out here on the front lines
我自豪地站在这里 与我的兄弟姐妹同在
Sleep in peace tonight
当自由受到侵害 我永远坚持正义
American soldier, I'm an American soldier
此刻我就在前线

在安宁的夜晚睡去
Yeah, an American soldier, an American
美国大兵 我就是美国大兵
beside my brothers and my sisters I will proudly take a stand
一个美国人 一个美国大兵
when liberty's in jeopardy I will always do what's right
I'm out here on the front lines
So Sleep in peace tonight
American soldier, I'm an American
An American, an American soldier
