jenny miller - god and country lyrics

[verse 1]
i was just a little girl at 18
mama couldn’t understand why i wanted to wear green
i knew there was more than this small town
so i packed my things and i headed out
from ribbons in my curls to tyin’ my hair up high
to countin’ the days when i had to say goodbye
from ballet shoes to dress blues
from pom+poms to parachutes
the little girl just grew up way too fast
when they ask me why i went in i say

[chorus]
to protect the ones i love
and stand up for the weak
to believe in somethin’ bigger than me
to live for god and country

i broke my daddy’s heart when i wеnt to war
his little girl was strong but this is not what he asked for
and i’m nothin’ comparеd to those who died
those who gave up, who gave their lives
when they asked me why i went in i say

[chorus]
to protect the ones i love
and stand up for the weak
to believe in somethin’ bigger than me
to live for god and country
[bridge]
nothin’ compares to that day
touchin’ down in the great u s of a
i never saw the grass so green or the sky so blue
somethin’ we all forget sometimes
i felt grace like i never knew

[chorus]
to protect the ones i love
and stand up for the weak
to believe in somethin’ bigger than me
to live
to protect the ones i love
and stand up for the weak
to believe in somethin’ bigger than me
to live for god and country
