We Were Soldiers soundtrack – Montgomery Gentry - Didn't I lyrics

Didn't I make you proud
Go and lay my life down
When you called my name
I thought I stood for something
Was doing the right thing when I went away
Now bein' back should be so simple
But I keep gettin' mixed signals from everyone
Why do folks sit and judge me
Who I ain't seen what I seen or did what I done
Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you
I faced your fears
Felt pain so you won't have to
Ya didn't I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left
I've seen boys fall to pieces
Grown men cry out for Jesus
Til they're black and blue
I thought God was on our side
Weren't we suppose to be the good guys
That would never lose
Cause I don't see no ticker tape or five mile parades
Sayin' "Thank You son"
Just folks that sit and judge me
Who ain't seen what I seen or did what I done
Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you
I faced your fears
Felt the pain so you won't have to
Ya didn't I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left.
