Dog Tags - Aaron Watson

Growing up I never cared too much for Superman

I guess he never could measure up next to my old man

There’s no S on his chest, it’s just an old weathered flag

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

They wear dog tags and they stand tall, lined up on the wall of freedom

Yeah, those dog tags in the cross hairs, they’re always right there when you

need them

You can bet their boots will hit the ground running, every time it hits the fan

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

For me it’s not some country boy banging on a guitar

It’s not a politician preaching, or a movie star

And I’ll tell ya one thing that’s a fact, it sure ain’t that quarterback

God know my heroes don’t wear capes

My heroes wear dog tags and they stand tall, lined up on the wall of freedom

Yeah, those dog tags in the cross hairs, they’re always right there when you

need them

You can bet their boots will hit the ground running, every time it hits the fan

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

There’s a star spangled covered coffin, a little boy watching his momma cry

Remember, it’s more than just beer and barbecue when those fireworks fly

My heroes wear dog tags

My heroes wear dog tags and they stand tall, lined up on the wall of freedom

Yeah, those dog tags in the cross hairs, they’re always right there when you

need them

You can bet their boots will hit the ground running, every time it hits the fan

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

God knows my heroes don’t wear capes

Growing up I never cared too much for Superman

I guess he never could measure up next to my old man
