Lyrics
Three tours in 85 one more time back in 99 that's right
18 he shipped out fast
All he ever knew was serve your country man
Laid down his gun to watch the sky
Those stars remind him of her eyes
He sat there and said to himself when I get home ima make that girl my wife
Fast forward a couple days
She sends him a letter and he tucks it somewhere safe
I love you but boy be safe
Cause now you're a daddy I just got the news today
He lifts his gun to fire a round
Those stars and stripes were waving proud
He couldn't see that blast come out the ground
That flag is folded now
She still don't know what it means hope she don't figure it out
That day her hearts gonna break
Green Beret Green Beret
Her mom will tell her the truth soon
But as of right now
She just think daddies away
I saw a girl in a green beret
Green Beret Green Beret
Sometime now down the road she's walking down the stairs
In her prom dress
He mom looks up to the sky and under her breath
Says damn look what you missed
That's little girl looks up there too
She pulls that hat out of the blue
Sets it on top her head and tells her dad
I'll save a dance for you
Cause now she knows what it means
She finally figured it out
Since then she ain't been the same
Green Beret Green Beret
Her mama told her the truth said daddies your angel now
She wears it everyday
She's still the girl in a green beret
Green beret Green Beret
Green Beret Green Beret
Her right hand lifted feels him with her more than ever today
I will maintain myself my arms and my equipment she says
She's standing there dressed in green moms got a smile on her face
Look boy she turned out okay
I'll have to let her go soon and give her angel the reigns
And pray to God she'll be safe
Now she's the girl in the green beret
Cause now she knows what it means walking in his footsteps now
Just like her daddy these days
Now she's the girl in the green beret
Now she's the girl in the Green Beret
