We Fought Hard Lyrics

My big brother broke my arm
Roughhousing out in our backyard
He'd hold me down till I couldn't breathe
Still think he put the tough in me, we fought hard
We both dated Katy Lee
He swore he kissed her before me
We saw her out with a boy named Jack
When it all went down I had his back, we fought hard

We fought hard, we fought real
No, you couldn't tell us different
We thought we were made of steel

We went all in, we gave 'em hell
Every loss and every victory
Is a story we could tell

These sweet scars that left their mark
We fought hard

They shipped us out, 2001
To a battle in the desert sun
I won't lie, I was scared
But at least I had my brother there
We fought hard
We fought hard, we fought real
No, you couldn't tell us different
We thought we were made of steel

We went all in, we gave 'em hell
Every loss and every victory
Is a story we could tell

These sweet scars that left their mark
We fought hard
Rode in the plane, I brought him home
Couldn't let him come back all alone
I met my mama at the gate
And all that I could think is

Was mama, we fought hard
And we fought real
Though you tried to tell us different
We thought we were made of steel

We went all in, we gave 'em hell
I never thought this'd be the story
That I'd ever have to tell

These sweet scars they leave their mark
We fought hard
