Everyone knows just how much country singer-songwriter Toby Keith supports America’s military. He’s a very patriotic man and has never been afraid to show that in his music, just like what he did with “American Soldier.”
Released in 2003 as the second single from his album Shock’n Y’all, the song became a No. 1 hit on the Billboard U.S. Hot Country Songs chart, keeping the top spot for four weeks.
