They call me Doc but I ain't got no degree
When the shit hits the fan, they're callin' for me
From Bluegrass Kentucky with red blood on my hands
Nobody calls me hero except for my friends

Yeah, I woke up from dreams
To find out that they were real
Well, I can tell you how it went
But I can't tell you how it feels

'Cause I've seen it all, helped heroes who fall
Picked them up 'til they stand tall
And I've been in the field and worked down to the bone
To make sure all my brothers get back home
I've shared the smiles, I've shed the tears
Swore they'd make it out of here
When they screamed, "Please make it stop"

They call me Doc, they all know my name
'Cause it's stitched on my chest and it hangs on this chain
You won't read it in the paper or see it on the TV
But I don't need no fame, that's fine by me

Yeah, when they're broke and bruised
I know just what to do
My job always starts
When their job is through

Yeah, I've seen it all, helped heroes who fall
Picked them up 'til they stand tall
And I've been in the field, worked down to the bone
To make sure all my brothers get back home
I've shared the smiles, I've shed the tears
Swore they'd make it out of here
When they screamed, "Please make it stop"

They call me Doc
They call me Doc

You'll never know the heartache
Of lookin' a grown man in the eye
When he asked you, "Am I gonna make it?"
And you've got to lie

Yeah, they call me Doc, I ain't got no degree
When the shit hits the fan, they're callin' for me
From Bluegrass Kentucky with red blood on my hands
Nobody calls me hero except my old man

Yeah, they call me Doc
