What Matters Most - Craig Morgan

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
