The Bumper of My S.U.V.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've got a bright red sticker on the back of my car Says "United States Marines" And yesterday a lady in a mini-van Held up her middle finger at me Does she think she knows what I stand for Or the things that I believe? [Refrain] Just by lookin' at a sticker for the U.S. Marines On the bumper of my S.U.V [Verse 2] See, my brother Chris, he's been in For more than 14 years now Our dad was in the Navy during Vietnam Did his duty, then he got out And my grandpa earned his Purple Heart On the beach of Normandy [Refrain] That's why I've got a sticker for the U.S. Marines On the bumper of my S.U.V [Verse 3] But that doesn't mean that I want war I'm not Republican or Democrat But I've gone all around this crazy world Just to try to better understand And, yes, I do have questions I get to ask them because I'm free [Refrain] That's why I've got a sticker for the U.S. Marines On the bumper of my S.U.V [Verse 4] 'Cause I've been to Hiroshima And I've been to the DMZ I've walked on the sand in Baghdad Still don't have all of the answers I need But I guess I wanna know where she's been Before she judges and gestures to me [Refrain] 'Cause she don't like my sticker for the U.S. Marines On the bumper of my S.U.V [Verse 5] So I hope that lady in her mini-van Turns on her radio and hears this from me As she picks up her kids From their private school And drives home safely on our city's streets Or to the building where her church group meets, yeah [Refrain] That's why I've got a sticker for the U.S. Marines On the bumper of my S.U.V
