Mmm yeah
School is out, Where to now?
I'm packin' up, headin' South
One last box, one last look around
I remember being so excited,
brand new friends that were so inviting
That's the way it's been since I was young
And I loved nothing more,
Than seeing my daddy in his uniform
I'm the daughter of a military man
It's a way of life
And I understand
And I'm so proud to say, it made me who I am today
I hope down the road I find a real good man
Who's done half the things that my daddy has
And it's a beautiful thing, my sweet American dream, yeah
We laid on our backs, looking up at the sky,
Watching f-15's scream on by
While me and my brother and sister would play outside
Shopping at the Commissary, Dancing at the Military Ball
Yeah, we did it all...
At 5 o clock when the anthem plays
You could hear a pin drop on the whole base
I'm the daughter of a military man
It's a way of life
And I understand
And I'm so proud to say, it made me who I am today
I hope down the road I find a real good man
Who's done half the things that my daddy has
And it's a beautiful thing, my sweet American dream,
Ooohhh yeah
Home is where you hang your hat
yeah, Thats what Mama says,
And I'm fine with that
I'm the daughter of a military man
It's a way of life
And I understand
And I'm so proud to say, it made me who I am today
I hope some day I find a real good man
Who's done half the things that my daddy has
And it's a beautiful thing, ooohhh
And it's a beautiful thing...
My sweet American dream
My sweet American dream
