The ballad is from the up-and-coming country duo, Walker McGuire. They come from the heart of the U.S.A., and you can definitely feel that patriotism and pride in their powerful song titled, “They Call Me Doc.â€
In the Marines, “Doc”is a nickname for hospital corpsmen or trauma medics who assist soldiers on the battlefield. It’s also an incredible honor for these brave military men and women.
Walker McGuire enlisted the help of an unnamed Navy corpsman who saved the lives of many Marines who were badly injured in Iraq to come up with the lyrics for the song. You can see it in their eyes and hear it in their voices – this song goes so much deeper than the chords.
Here’s Our Takeaway: There are times in everyone’s life when emotions are overwhelming – whether they’re negative or positive – and having an outlet, like music, is a way to communicate your message and help you better process how you’re feeling. Find the outlet that works for you!
