We got some trouble in our own back yard.
Things are are kinda tough, times are kinda hard. Got a lot of people livin' out in the street, people goin' hungry without nothin' to eat, and in this land of plenty, this souldn't be goin' on. We got enough for everybody we just gonna have to pass it along. Well I'm glad about the fall of communism, I'm glad about the Berlin wall, and I like seein' old Saddam bite the dust, in fact I'm glad about it all. And I believe in helping everybody, but when it comes to all them foreign loans, I think we oughta remember that charity begins at home. Yes it starts right now in (America, America,) I know the sun is risin' on a better day. (America, America,) we got the power and we know the way. (America, America,) well let me say a few words about the Red, White, and Blue. (America, America,) I know you're gonna do it I believe in you. Now I been tryin' to figure this out, but there's somethin' that I just don't know. How can you make things better when you take our jobs, and send 'um down to Mexico? And then there was this big shot, from the land of the risin' sun. He said the workin' people in America were lazy and dumb. Well let me tell you somethin' Jack. The next time I go on a shopping trip, and take somethin' off of the rack, if it don't say, "Made in the U.S.A." I'm just gonna put it back. We can't leave it to the politicians, cause they don't do nothin' but talk, and it's we the people that are gonna have to walk the walk. And we can do it right now in (America, America,) hey I know the sun is risin' on a better day. (America, America,) yeah we got the power and we know the way. (America, America,) now let me say a few words about the Red, White, and Blue. (America, America,) I know you're gonna do it I believe in you. Well we got the best dang farmers in the whole wide world. The fastest horses and the prettiest girls. We got the Army, the Navy, Air Force, and Marines, the mightiest fightin' force the world's ever seen. We the kinda people that can get thins done, We're servin' notice that we're still number one. We got the nerve (We got the nerve.), we got the will, (We got the will.), we are all together cause you know that we are still. (America, America,) well I know the sun is risin' it's a risin' on a better day. (America, America,) hey, hey we got the power and we know the way.

See that man in the field over yonder
With dirt on his hands and a loan on his back He's the man that puts the food on your table He's the man that grows the clothes on your back Were running a mile out of the house he was born in Tending on the sidelines and watching him fall Selling his land to the big corporations What you gonna do when they get it all He's been rolled for sure treated like a outlaw Turned down sold out, put out to graze He's been pushed you know when he can push no more It gets a little harder everyday [chorus] He's the American farmer And he damn hard to beat Better wake up America, wake up America Coz if the man don't work then the people don't eat He's sending the high tech stuff of to Russia I can't figure what where doing it for We should be sending the wheat and meat and cotton Coz a loaf of bread never started no war See that man in the middle of city Eatin' outta garbage cans, sleepin' in the street See that baby, moping in the kitty To make ends meet It's a damn disgrace on the face of America Hungry people everywhere you go Children in Africa starving by the fields While the land lays fallow and the banks foreclose [chorus] He's an American, he's an American, he's an American, American farmer Never him through Coz if he goes down swinging You better know where gonna go down swinging to [chorus] I said the people don't eat I said the people don't eat |

In the heat of the battle
To the head army there stepped a man He said, ?I've been to the top of the liberty And I've looked over the promised land? He had no fear of death or evil His skin was black and his name was King He said I may not get there with you But put your faith in God and let freedom ring There was a tyrant strong and mighty And he built his self a wall He said, ?This wall's gonna stand forever No power on Earth is gonna make it fall? But then the winds of change they started blowing Like a free bird on the wing And then the wall fell down with a sound like thunder Let the free bird fly and let freedom ring (Let freedom ring) Throughout the northland out across the frozen Tundra To the land of the midnight sun and the Eskimo (Let freedom ring) From Albuquerque across the sea to Greece and Turkey And from Halifax down south to Mexico (Let freedom ring) From Carolina round the world to Indochina From Seattle to Mobile and Abilene (Let freedom ring) Let freedom ring (Let freedom ring) Let freedom ring Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring Innocent blood was shed for freedom In a faraway place called Tiennemen Square 'Cause the heavy hand of cruel oppression Is so much more than a man can bear But you can't chain a man forever And your guns they don't mean a thing 'Cause they'll rise again in the cause of justice Give the power to the people and let freedom ring (Let freedom ring) From Minnesota across the plains to North Dakota And from Kennebunkport out to Kalamazoo (Let freedom ring) From Rome to Reno and from Tokyo to Moscow And from Barcelona, Spain to Kathmandu (Let freedom ring) From Madagascar and from Berlin to Alaska And from Liverpool to Perth to Aberdeen (Let freedom ring) Let freedom ring (Let freedom ring) Let freedom ring Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring Let's give thanks to God our Father The author of our liberty Gave us this land to protect and cherish It's the home of the brave and it's the land of the free Oh America, we love you Sweet land of hope of thee we sing And with our life's blood we will protect you Let the eagle fly and let freedom ring Let freedom ring Let freedom ring Let freedom ring Let it ring, let it ring Let it ring, let it ring Let freedom ring |

This ain't no rag, it's a flag
And we don't wear it on our heads It's a symbol of the land where the good guys live Are you listening to what I said You're a coward and a fool And you broke all of the rules And you wounded our American pride And now we're coming with a gun And we know you're gonna run But you can't find no place to hide We're gonna hunt you down like a mad dog hound Make you pay for the lives you stole We're all through talking and a messing around And now it's time to rock and roll These colors don't run and we're speaking as one When we say united we stand When you mess with one, you mess with us all Every boy, girl, woman and man You've been acting mighty rash And talking that trash Let me give you some advice You can crawl back in your hole Like a dirty little mole But now it's time to pay the price You might of shot us in the back Now you have to face the fact That the big boys' in the game And the thunder's been crashing And the lightning's been flashing And now it's getting ready to rain This is the United States of America The land of the brave and the free We believe in God and we believe in justice We believe in liberty You've been pulling our chain We should've done something 'bout you a long time ago But now the flag's flying high and the fur's gonna fly And soon the whole world's gonna know This ain't no rag, it's a flag Old Glory red, white and blue The stars and the stripes when it comes to a fight We can do what we have to do Our people stand proud The American crowd is faithful, and loyal and tough We're good as the best and better than the rest And you're gonna find out soon enough When you look up in the sky And you see the eagle fly You better know he's a heading your way 'Cause this ain't no rag it's a flag And it stands for the USA USA USA USA USA --- Instrumental --- When you look up in the sky And you see the eagle fly You better know he's a heading your way 'Cause this ain't no rag it's a flag And it stands for the USA (child recites, while band chants USA, USA) I pledge allegiance, to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic, for which it stands One Nation, under God, indivisible With liberty and justice for all)... |

Got on a plane in 'Frisco
And got off in Vietnam I walked into a different world The past forever gone I could have gone to Canada Or I could have stayed in school But I was brought up differently I couldn't break the rules Thirteen months and fifteen days The last ones were the worst One minute I'd kneel down and pray And the next I'd stand and curse No place to run to Where I did not feel that war When I got home I stayed alone And checked behind each door Cuz I'm still in Saigon Still in Saigon I am still in Saigon In my mind The ground at home was covered in snow And I was covered in sweat My younger brother calls me a killer And my daddy calls me a vet Everybody says I'm someone else And I'm sick and there's no cure Damned if I know who I am There was only one place I was sure When i was still in Saigon Still in saigon I am still in saigon In my mind Every summer when it rains I smell the jungle, I hear the planes I can't tell no one, I feel ashamed Afraid some day I'll go insane That's been ten long years ago And time has gone on by Now and then I catch myself Eyes searching through the sky All the sounds of long ago Will be forever in my head Mingled with the wounded cries And the silence of the dead 'Cuz I'm still in Saigon Still in Saigon I am still in Saigon In my mind I am still in Saigon I am still in Saigon Yes, I'm still in Saigon In my mind |

"The Last Fallen Hero"
Oh, the cowards came by morning and attacked without a warning Leaving flames and death and chaos in our streets. In the middle of this fiery hell brave heroes fell In the skies of Pennsylvania on a plane bound for destruction With the devil and his angels at the wheel They never reached their target on the ground Brave heroes brought it down Chorus: This is a righteous cause so without doubt or pause I will do what my country asks of me Make any sacrifice We'll pay whatever price So the children of tomorrow can be free Lead on red, white and blue And we will follow you until we win the final victory God help us do our best we will not slack or rest Till the last fallen hero rests in peace Now the winds of war are blowing and there's no way of knowing Where this bloody path we're traveling will lead We must follow till the end Or face it all again And make no mistake about it, write it, preach it, talk it, shout it Across the mountains and the deserts and the seas The blood of innocence and shame Will not be shed in vain Chorus: This is a righteous cause so without doubt or pause I will do what my country asks of me Make any sacrifice We'll pay whatever price So the children of tomorrow can be free Lead on red, white and blue And we will follow you until we win the final victory God help us do our best we will not slack or rest Till the last fallen hero rests in peace God help us do our best we will not slack nor rest Till the last fallen hero rests in peace |

Well the eagle's been flyin' slow
And the flag's been flyin' low And a lot of people sayin' that America's fixin' to fall Well speakin' just for me And some people from Tennessee We've got a thing or two to tell you all This lady may have stumbled But she ain't never fell And if the Russians don't believe that They can all go straight to hell We're gonna put her feet back On the path of righteousness and then God bless America again CHORUS And you never did think That it ever would happen again (In America, did you?) You never did think That we'd ever get together again ( We damn sure fooled you ) Yeah, we're walkin' real proud And we're talkin' real loud again ( In America ) You never did think That it ever would happen again From The Sound up in Long Island Out to San Francisco Bay And everything that's in between them is our own And we may have done a little bit Of fightin' amongst ourselves But you outside people best leave us alone 'Cause we'll all stick together And you can take that to the bank That's the cowboys and the hippies And the rebels and the yanks You just go and lay your hand On a Pittsburgh Steelers' fan And I think you're gonna finally understand CHORUS And you never did think That it ever would happen again (In America, did you?) You never did think That we'd ever get together again ( We damn sure fooled you ) Yeah, we're walkin' real proud And we're talkin' real loud again ( In America ) You never did think That it ever would happen again (Instrumental) CHORUS And you never did think That it ever would happen again (In America, did you?) You never did think That we'd ever get together again ( We damn sure fooled you ) Yeah, we're walkin' real proud And we're talkin' real loud again ( In America ) You never did think That it ever would happen again |

I ain't nothin' but a simple man
They call me a redneck I reckon that I am But there's things going on That make me mad down to the core. I have to work like a dog to make ends meet There's crooked politicians and crime in the street And I'm madder'n hell and I ain't gonna take it no more. We tell our kids to just say no Then some panty waist judge lets a drug dealer go Slaps him on the wrist and then he turns him back out on the town. Now if I had my way with people sellin' dope I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope I'd hang 'em up high and let 'em swing 'til the sun goes down Well, you know what's wrong with the world today People done gone and put their Bible's away They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land The good book says it so I know it's the truth An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth You better watch where you go and remember where you been That's the way I see it I'm a Simple Man. Now I'm the kinda man that'd not harm a mouse But if I catch somebody breakin in my house I've got twelve guage shotgun waiting on the other side So don't go pushing me against my will I don't want to have to fight you but I dern sure will So if you don't want trouble then you'd better just pass me on by As far as I'm concerned there ain't no excuse For the raping and the killing and the child abuse And I've got a way to put an end to all that mess Just take them rascals out in the swamp Put 'em on their knees and tie 'em to a stump Let the rattlers and the bugs and the alligators do the rest You know what's wrong with the world today People done gone and put their Bible's away They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land The Good Book says it so I know it's the truth An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth You better watch where you go and remember where you been That's the way I see it I'm a Simple Man |
