THE FLAG

HISTORY WILL JUDGE US WHO WILL THERE BE TO BLAME

VERSE1

WE WENT OFF TO SCHOOL AND OUR TEACHER WAS THE BOSS

MOM & DADDY TAUGHT US THERE WERE LINES YOU DIDN’T CROSS

TO THE FLAG WE PLEDGED ALLEGIENCE OUR HANDS ACROSS OUR HEARTS

AND THERE WAS NO COMPLAINING BOUT ONE…“NATION UNDER GOD”

VERSE 2

A LAND OF IMMIGRANTS, ALL COMING HERE BECAUSE

THE WORDS “WE THE PEOPLE” WERE MORE THAN JUST A CLAUSE

BUT FREEDOM FOR THE FREE CAN COME AT QUITE A COST

YOU STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT OR WHAT IS RIGHT GETS LOST

CHORUS

WE LEARNED AND SANG ABOUT OUR LAND FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA

BACK THEN NO ONE FORGOT THE WORDS “MY COUNTRY TIZ OF THEE”

SO MUCH HAS CHANGED…

SOME SEEM TO WANT THE WHOLE THING UP IN FLAMES

OR JUST GO WATCH THEIR FAVORITE TEAM… NO ANTHEM SANG

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL IS BEING RE-ARRANGED

HISTORY WILL JUDGE US…WHO WILL THERE BE TO BLAME

VERSE3

WHAT WOULD OUR FOUNDING FATHERS SAY TO US TODAY?

OR THE YOUNG MEN NEVER GROWING OLD, WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES D-DAY

AND THOSE BEFORE AND AFTER … HOW DO WE ALL REPAY

IF YOU DISAGREE, USE HONOR WHEN LIBERTY’S AT STAKE

CHORUS

WE USE TO LEARN AND SING ABOUT OUR LAND FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA

BACK THEN NO ONE FORGOT THE WORDS “MY COUNTRY TIZ OF THEE”

SO MUCH HAS CHANGED…

SOME SEEM TO WANT THE WHOLE THING UP IN FLAMES

OR JUST GO WATCH THEIR FAVORITE TEAM… NO ANTHEM SANG

BRIDGE:

TO BURN THE FLAG SOME CLAIM THE RIGHT

HOW SHOULD WE READ THE LAW

WHERE I COME FROM IT’S PLAIN AS DAY

THERE’S LINES YOU NEVER CROSS

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL IS BEING RE-ARRANGED

HISTORY WILL JUDGE US…WHO WILL THERE BE TO BLAME

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL IS BEING RE-ARRANGED

HISTORY WILL JUDGE US… WHO WILL THERE BE TO BLAME

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL IS BEING RE-ARRANGED

HISTORY WILL JUDGE US… WILL WE BE TO BLAME
