It's gonna be a long one, another grave yard shift As he says goodbye to his wife and kids He spends his life just like his dad's Driving away under the weight of the badge
He's seen it all in his fifteen years Watchin' our backs, facing our fears Lord knows it ain't no easy task Keeping us safe under the weight of the badge
He swore that oath to protect and serve Pours his heart and soul into both those words Lays his life on the line And the line he walks is razor-fine Tempered strength is always tough But he ain't gonna buckle under the weight of the badge
Not that long ago, he woke up in the hospital With his wife and kids praying by his bed He said, "I'm gonna be alright There's just some times you gotta fight" And the truth is, nothing truer could be said I do it for us and I do it for them And I ain't gonna buckle under the weight of the badge
It doesn't weigh a lot until you put it on And the weight of it is staggering Then duty calls each time He knows he's gotta answer And it's all in the hand of The heavy weight of the badge And he ain't gonna buckle Under the weight of the badge No, he ain't gonna buckle Under the weight of the badgeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
