Darby Ledbetter - I Won't Let My Guard Down Lyrics
Theres nothing left to packShe throws that rucksack on her backAs she waves goodbyeHes looking fit to fightPulls his chin strap tight and falls in lineJust like the flag that flies on every sleeveThey hold tight to all that they believeCause theyre always there, always readyTheir will is strong and their aim is steadyDoing their best to keep us safe and soundOh it might get hard yeah it might get toughBut they wont back down, no they wont give upCause the look in their eyes says without a doubtI wont let my guard downFrom cities, towns and farmsThey stand arm and arm, shoulder to shoulderBehind each face and nameA heart beats strong and brave in every soldierAt anytime they would risk it allNo they dont mind answering the callCause theyre always there, always readyTheir will is strong and their aim is steadyDoing their best to keep us safe and soundOh it might get hard yeah it might get toughBut they wont back down, no they wont give upCause the look in their eyes says without a doubtI wont let my guard downIts a creed, its a soldiers way of lifeWhen it comes to freedom they wont compromiseCause theyre always there, always readyTheir will is strong and their aim is steadyDoing their best to keep us safe and soundOh it might get hard yeah it might get toughBut they wont back down, no they wont give upCause the look in their eyes says without a doubtI wont let my guard downI wont let my guard downDont let your Guard down
