A Mother's Hero lyrics

Got you a glove and a baseball

Your little hand was so strong

Gave you a guitar for Christmas

To hear you play a song

But all those things didn’t matter

Your eyes were on the prize

Cuz when we gave you a nerf gun the next year

You should’ve seen the look in your eyes

You could’ve picked the road

Where life was easy to do

You could’ve said hello

To all the fun in the world

But you stayed true to you

And to the Red, White, and Blue

You made me so proud

When you chose to be my hero

My hero, my hero

I cried because I couldn’t stop you

So I said a prayer instead

I said “God make me a promise”

Please protect my baby

Letting go is never easy

But this is what you’ve always wanted

Now you’re serving your country

With courage, honor, and pride

Now you return to me

To the life you left behind

Now you’ve seen the world

And you’ve earned the prize

You stayed true to you

To the Red, White and Blue

And you have become

My courages hero
