On My Watch Tonight
I come from an Island in the Carolina sand
Where I was broke down, and built up and reborn a fighting man
My blood runs red, white and blue
I’ll brave the cold, the rain, the pain and the bullets so you don’t have to
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight
It’s a long, long way from that island
And a long way from home
With the thought of you standing behind me I could never be alone
There’s a promise I need you to make
While I’m gone you take care of the love
And I’ll deal with the hate.
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight
