He Bleeds Blue

She runs her iron over his uniform
It's clean and pressed with a crease
Not one thread is torn
She kisses him goodbye
Plants one on his badge for luck
Then he's off to his thankless job
The one he loves so much

He bleeds blue
Proud written on his face
He knows the danger
And does his job anyway
Out there tryin to make a difference
Protecting me and you
Tuning out the ridicule
Cause he bleeds blue

There's kids that hang at the park
He's taking a liking too
Takes time with them to listen
Then to shoot some hoops
He brings miss jones her mail
She's been laid up for months
When the streets come alive with the bad guys
He hauls a few away in cuffs

Just a routine traffic stop
Like he's done a thousand times
Soon as his partner in crime
What he tells the wife
God called our brother home tonight

And he bleeds blue
Proud written on his face
And he knew the danger
And did his job anyway

Out there tryin to make a difference
Protecting me and you
He was scorned and ridiculed
Yet he bleeds blue
Scorned and ridiculed
He bleeds blue

She runs her iron over his uniform
It's clean and pressed with a crease
Except where the threads are torn
