Lyrics for Soldier written by Craig Morgan:
“Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Where did all the people go?
They got scared when the lights went low
I’ll get you through it nice and slow
While the world’s spinning out of control
Afraid of what they might lose
Might get scraped or they might get bruised
Yeah, you could try, but what’s the use?
That’s why it’s called a moment of truth, yeah
I’ll get it if you need it
I’ll search if you don’t see it
If you’re thirsty, I’ll be rain
If you get hurt, I’ll take your pain
I know you don’t believe it
But I said it, and I still mean it
When you heard what I told you
When you get worried, I’ll be your soldier
Funny, when times get hard
At the last moment when you’re supposed to charge
Always on the longest yard
Oh, they feel their feet getting cold
Hiding here and hiding there
Find them underneath the stairs
Yeah, people hiding everywhere
Trying to be as still as a stone
So, I’ll get it if you need it
I’ll search if you don’t see it
If you’re thirsty, I’ll be rain
If you get hurt, I’ll take your pain
I know you don’t believe it
But I said it, and I still mean it
When you heard what I told you
When you get worried, I’ll be your soldier
My aim is so true
I wanna show you
I’ll try forever
I’m never gonna say surrender
I’ll get it if you need it (if you need it)
I’ll search if you don’t see it (if you don’t see it)
If you’re thirsty, I’ll be rain
If you get hurt, I’ll take your pain
I know you don’t believe it
But I said it, and I still mean it
When you heard what I told you
When you get worried, I’ll be your soldier
I’ll be your soldier
I’ll be your soldier
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na”
