He goes to work at 10 p.m. So, he’ll kiss his son goodnight. Sleep tight. He’s sworn to protect and serve. So, she prays he’ll be alright for one more night. And, she swears it doesn’t bother her at all To wake to the sound of sirens. Lord, where could he be? God bless the women who love men like me. He marches off to war again. She says she understands. He’s her man. He leaves behind a baby girl Who will never really know why Daddy has to go. On the phone and a million miles away She whispers soft and sweet Baby, just come home to me. God bless the women who love me like me Bridge And, he knows it’s a miracle That she ever even stayed this long And, though he never did say a word He’s trying to with this song. acoustic guitar solo He takes the stage alone tonight For friends he’s never met At least not yet Maybe he’ll tell a joke or two And sing your favorite songs, so you can sing along. Down the road there’s a red-headed girl She cries herself to sleep again. Lord, she prays over me. God bless the women… God bless the women who love men like me
