Folded flags and memories Photographs and the rosary She hangs her head as the choir sings and she cries and she cries and she cries and she cries Cause her family was waiting at home and was praying for him to survive That folded flag that she now holds she holds it close tonight
Shots rang out another angle cries open up the gates when he arrives As he fell to the ground there was no fear in his eyes They’ll bury him before they bury his pride
This is for my people that are fighting overseas This is for my people keeping all the kids free Another brother got shot another RIP This is for my people that died for you and me For the Red White and Blue the Stars and the Strips The gunpowder residue on the letters you write For every picture that you send to your lonely wife Wishing we can see you just one more time Now this little old town showing you a lot of pride Every store downtown has a Flag outside Today I bought a six pack and went for a drive I’m wishing we could spend it like we did in 05 I remember what you told me when you signed on the line You didn’t do for the fame didn’t do it for the shine Didn’t do for the money didn’t do for a dime You did it for your Country and American Pride
Shots rang out another angle cries open up the gates when he arrives As he fell to the ground there was no fear in his eyes They’ll bury him before they bury his pride
For the Red White and Blue the Stars and the Strips Red White and Blue the Stars and the Strips you know Red White and Blue the Stars and the Strips I did it for my Country and American Pride
Shots rang out another angle cries open up the gates when he arrives As he fell to the ground there was no fear in his eyes They’ll bury him before they bury his pride
Shots rang out another angle cries open up the gates when he arrives As he fell to the ground there was no fear in his eyes They’ll bury him before they bury his pride
