Deputydad
Most people don't quite grasp the risk he takes everyday
so at night i say a prayer before the bed i lay
To them he's just another cop on the street
but in reality he's a hero, who doesnt believe in the word defeat
He's fearless and mighty; in his eyes i only see wisdom and strength
the power to overcome any given length
His commitment to his career is one thing he'll never lack
And as his daughter im forced to face the fact
that once he leaves for work there's a chance he wont be coming back
His pride and courage are displayed by the badge that he wears
his certification earned through blood, sweat and tears
Keeping you safe is his only concern
but for us, his family, it's his safe return
So to you, the people whom he's sworn to protect and serve
we solemnly ask you give him the respect which he deserves
