Raised up right
Yeah we're the theater in a light
Patch on his shoulder
Got them stars and stripes
Kiss the baby goodbye
And he runs out the door
And mama folds her hands please
Jesus give him just one more
He don't do it for glory
It's just the right thing to do
So his engine 960 lights up Main Street at night
I'd like to thank God
For the ones raised up right
Raised up
Raised up right
It takes something we ain't all got
No time for a second thought
We had heroes like that
And got occurs it can't be taught
So where the flames rise up
And the smoke pours out
They run in to fight the devil
Please Jesus bring 'em back out
He don't do it for glory
It's just the right thing to do
So his engine 960 lights up Main Street at night
I'd like to thank Gooo-od
For the ones raised up right
(Aw, the ones raised up)
Oh, the ones raised uuuuuup
Riiiiiight
It takes something we ain't all got
No time for a second thought
So his engine 960 lights up Main Street tonight
Yeah, I'd like to thank God
For the ones raised up right
Raised up right
