Chorus:
With boots on the ground
I became a Soldier.

Lyrics:
My recruiter said to me
You don’t have to be a big strong man
To stand up and fight for this land.
You don’t have to be a Soldier’s son,
Don’t even have to be a citizen.
You’ve got to have the ethos within,
To never accept defeat.
You’ve got to have the values within
To be all that you can be.
We want you to serve your country
We want you to join the U.S. Army

We fought to set our colonies free,
We fought each other over slavery.
We fought for manifest destiny.
To keep our republic spreading.
We’ll stop a dictators tyranny.
And an empire attacking.
We’ll stand up to a communist,
And we’ll hunt down every terrorist.
We come together as an Army of one,
We come together as an Army Strong

I became a Recruiter
I want you for US Army
Look sharp, be sharp, go Army
Today’s Army wants to join you
At home on the street, in school
It’s your choice, not chance
Modern Army green, grey pants
Just come as you are
What is your warrior?
