Walkin' Behind The Star

(álbum: Classics 2 - 2015)

When that old wild west needed taming
A special breed was born
Instilled with the courage
To walk behind the star

And make a stand for the rights of man
Knowing it could mean their life
But somebody had to draw the line
Between wrong and right

Nowadays it's not much different
Just the uniforms have changed
Good folk need protecting
Where evil still remains

So God bless all of the women and men
Sworn to uphold the law
And thank 'em for the fallen ones
The ones who gave it all

Walking behind the star
Braving the line of fire
Standing tall when duty calls
Taking it down to the wire

From helping a newborn arrive
In the seat of an old squad car
To putting the bad guys away
Walking behind the stars

It's just a piece of metal
Until it's pinned upon a chest
Then it becomes a symbol of America's best

Walking behind the star
Braving the line of fire
Standing tall when duty calls
Taking it down to the wire

From helping a newborn arrive
In the seat of an old squad car
To putting the bad guys away
Walking behind the stars

They're putting the bad guys away
Walking behind the stars
