I wrote this song about missed opportunities, or time I froze in he moment and regretted not doing something.. I hope you enjoy it!
Lyrics:
I just wanna be the man
Dad wanted me to be
My grandpa fought in world war two
It could be me in number three
And I don’t wanna disappoint
Those who came before
I just wanna keep my chin up
Play my part in the war
Oh sergeant give me another chance
Oh sergeant this time I won’t hesitate
Oh sergeant give me another chance
I wanna be on the front lines
Sharp, quick, keen and reloaded
That’s how I was when I saw the shoreline
Kept thinking over my training
Keeping it all fresh in my mind
Oh in the boat I, I thought I was ready
But when I got to the beach my aim was unsteady
Oh sergeant give me another chance
This time I won’t hesitate
Oh sergeant give me another chance
I wanna be on the front lines
Oh general this time I will shoot to kill
Oh general I promise I will
Oh general this time I will shoot to kill
I wanna be on the front lines
In my dreams I was a hero,
the one who saved the day
But when the bullets started flying
My, my courage ran away
They told me that I could kill a man
But the fear in his eyes froze the gun in my hand.
Oh sergeant give me another chance
Oh sergeant this time I won’t hesitate
Oh sergeant give me another chance
I wanna be on the front lines
Oh general this time I will shoot to kill
Oh general I promise I will
Oh general this time I will shoot to kill
I wanna be on the front lines
