In the key of G

Verse 1

Your call came in late last night

I heard Hello Mom I’m doing fine

I’m Sorry its been awhile

Can’t stay too long on this line

Don’t worry I’ll be OK

I’ll be home sometime in May

Say hello to everyone, and give yourself a hug

We’re doing what needs to be done

Chorus

I’m a Military Mom, doing my best to stay strong

Praying everyday for you and all the others too

Fighting for the Red White and Blue

Verse 2

I go about my daily life

Holding my head up high and proud

For I know this sacrifice is worth it for our lives

to be free and safe from harm

Chorus

I’m a Military Mom, doing my best to stay strong

Praying everyday for you and all the others too

Fighting for the Red White and Blue

Verse 3

Thank God for the internet

Got your pictures just today

I’m Happy to see your smile

I’m relieved for a little while

Can’t Watch the evening news

Though I know I have to

I hope the bad news I heard today doesn’t come my way

I long to see you in May

 

Chorus

I’m a Military Mom, doing my best to stay strong

Praying everyday for you and all the others too

Fighting for the Red White and Blue

End

I hope the bad news I heard today doesn’t come my way

Can’t wait to see you in May
