Say It Loud

well i've got the flag tattooed on my calf
wear my dog tags everyday
to remember the way
we had to fight
through all those nights
and this bracelet i got on
is for my boy that never made it home
he'll never truly be gone
oh

my daddies Uncle Sam
my mamma's Lady Liberty
i proudly fight
for the land of the free
i aint afraid to take a stand
cover my heart with my hand
when that anthem starts to play
i pray
for peace on earth
but i know what its worth
hey i'm American and proud
and i'll say it loud

i've been on both sides of the gun
doin what had to be done
wore that uniform for 4 years
and it still makes me grin from ear to ear
you're damn right i support our troops
i'll always give em a salute

my daddies Uncle Sam
my mamma's Lady Liberty
i proudly fight
for the land of the free
i aint afraid to take a stand
cover my heart with my hand
when that anthem starts to play
i pray
for peace on earth
but i know what its worth
hey i'm American and proud
and i'll say it loud

if you got something bad to say about my country
well hoss we're gonna have to fight
damn right

my daddies Uncle Sam
my mamma's Lady Liberty
i proudly fight
for the land of the free
i aint afraid to take a stand
cover my heart with my hand
when that anthem starts to play
i pray
for peace on earth
but i know what its worth
hey i'm American and proud
and i'll say it loud
