What Matters Most

歌詞

No, it ain't about the place he's been living for the past 8 months And it ain't about the badges on his uniform And it ain't about the oil like they say it is in the news You'll never hear him say "It don't matter anymore" 'Cause what matters most is still at home Gathered 'round the table, barely, barely able to get through the day Without thinking 'bout him, and their life without him So he makes sure that they know that he knows what matters most She gets mad when someone talks bad about the red, white and blue She says they don't understand what it stands for Said if they spend just one day on their knees in her shoes They'd be a little appreciative, of that I'm sure 'Cause what matters most is down the road At the veterans cemetery where his best friends carried him and laid him down They think about him, and their life without him, They make sure that everybody knows what matters most What matters most is still at home That little boy and girl, living in a world that's forever changed They think about him, and their life without him They make sure that everybody knows Not a day goes by that they don't let it show what matters most What matters most She gets mad when someone talks bad about the red, white and blue She says they don't understand what it stands for
