for those who fight for us
Standing together
looking out across the smoking sand
Sent here from my home
to defend a foreign land
I hold my flag up high
and claim victory in her name
I fight for my countrythough many have been slain.
I'm not afraid to pay the price
Ive been from sea to shining sea
I fight for those who cant fight for them selves
because freedom isn't free
I hold my head up high
as the battle wages on
I just pray i wont be forgotten
when my fighting days are done
Theres a little bit of soldier in everyone of you
were cut from the same cloth
The Red, The White, and The Blue.
