[00:09.29]Saw a story on the local news last night
[00:12.67]About one more struggling single mother
[00:16.78]She was talking about how hard it is getting by
[00:19.54]With no help, no money, no nothing from the baby's father
[00:24.66]Made me think about this guy I know with a wife and a child
[00:28.66]Who's working two jobs just to get by
[00:33.29]Yeah, he says he'd do anything he could in this world
[00:36.07]Just to give his young family a better life; yeah, a better life
[00:41.91]Oh, that's a man
[00:49.44]That's a 19-year-old, modern-day hero man
[00:54.82]
[00:58.72]Those two young Marines over there fighting for their country
[01:02.90]Man, they're gonna be friends forever
[01:06.45]They've both come back eventually
[01:08.31]But as bonds and destiny would have it
[01:10.81]They don't come back together
[01:14.75]Yeah, the one who lived to tell about
[01:16.82]Why he can't even talk about it
[01:19.23]Keeps fighting that fight up there in his head
[01:22.77]Ain't a day goes by he don't wonder why
[01:26.25]Why it wasn't me instead
[01:28.79]It could've been me instead
[01:31.14]
[01:31.60]Oh, that's a man
[01:39.32]That's a you don't know how hard he tried to save his buddy's life man
[01:49.19]I don't know about you
[01:51.10]Sometimes, I just need a little reminder
[01:56.49]And reach down and find some understanding
[02:01.20]Find some kind of kindness
[02:04.60]
[02:21.74]Read about a man who said his family
[02:23.60]Had been farming the same land in Ohio for 100 years
[02:29.84]Felt like he'd paid for it ten times over
[02:33.17]With his own blood, his own sweat, and his own tears
[02:38.20]If he had to, he'd be out there on that tractor working
[02:42.11]Seven long, hot days a week
[02:45.79]Yeah, he's the kind of feller that people get real quiet
[02:49.42]When he stands up in church to speak
[02:52.01]They know when he speaks
[02:53.96]
[02:54.40]Oh, that's a man
[03:01.91]That's a stand tall, walk straight
[03:04.44]Put God's share in the collection plate man
[03:08.83]
[03:10.98]Oh, that's a man
[03:19.23]Oh, that's a man
[03:24.07]
