All A Man Can Do Lyrics

Well it seems so long ago, I took the train to Quanico
I Kissed my mama, shook my fathers hand
I was just a raw recruit, dressed up in my soldier suit
Fresh and young without a clue, what I thought a man should doTake your chances take your shot, cause 50/50s all you got
Make each day the best you can, thats a line I understand
Live each moment like your last, cause life goes by you so damn fast
Make a promise and keep it true cause that is all a man can doI took my engine made of steel, I walked it through the killing fields
I took the time to say a prayer or two,
I made some friends along the way, some returned some had to stay
And some of us could bear the pain, but some were never quite the sameTake your chances take your shot, cause 50/50s all you got
Make each day the best you can, thats a line I understand
Live each moment like your last, cause life goes by you so damn fast
Make a promise and keep it true cause That is all a man can doIt doesnt seem so long ago, I hitched down to New Mexico
I kissed my mama, I saw my fathers stone
Friends are gone or out or touch, but nothing seems to change that much
The deserts hot the skys still blue, Im getting by still making dueTake your chances take your shot, cause 50/50s all you got
Make each day the best you can, thats a line I understand
Live each moment like your last, cause life goes by you so damn fast

Make a promise and keep it true, cause that is all a man can do
Make a promise and keep it true, cause that is all a man can do
