LAND OF PLENTY

i face my job like a coming storm
i start my day with a clean pressed uniform
a 9mm and a 4 wheel drive
i kiss my family good bye

across the line a man leaves home too
we may meet up before the day is through
a little bit of spanish is all i speak
enough to stop a man tryin' to feed his family

yeah and it's a high tide
up and down the front line
keepin' an eye on the land of plenty

i wear a heavy black kevlar vest
my wife prays it never gets put to the test
i don't worry 'bout the rocks that the young ones throw
but a semi-automatic keep you on your toes

chorus

another hour my shift is done
i spot a group but i let 'em run
you gotta appreciate what a man will do
carrying the water and his baby too

chorus (2x)
