[Verse 1]
Nineteen
The number on his back
Voted captain of his high school football team
He took us all the way to state
Had a scholarship to play down at Tennessee
Said he could run
He could duck
He could throw
He could go like you've never seen
Nineteen

[Verse 2]
But on the day those twin towers came down
His whole world turned around
He told 'em all
Y'all I can't play ball
There's a war on now

So he walked right down
With a few good men
And he joined the Marines
At nineteen

[Chorus]
He's the boy next door
Might have carried your bag at the grocery store
Now he's somebody's son
In a hole with a gun
In some foreign land
Tryin' to hold on to his American Dreams
Nineteen

There's a sniper out there
In the dark somewhere
And a soldier down
We need someone
Who could run
Who could duck
To go get him out

Ain't there one good man
Who'll raise his hand
And take one for the team
How 'bout you Nineteen

[Chorus]
He's the boy next door
Might have carried your bag at the grocery store
Now he's somebody's son
In a hole with a gun
In some foreign land
Tryin' to hold on to his American Dreams
Nineteen

[Verse 3]
Brought him home today
With a big parade
Down on Main Street
Gave him a purple heart
A silver star
Soldier gave a speech

Said he could run
He could duck
He could throw
He's the one that rescued me
Said he could've played for Tennessee

Nineteen

He was nineteen
