LAND OF THE FREE

On Independence Day this year We’ll wave our Flag, salute and cheer We’ll thank all those who’ve gone before And those today, we send to War.Del “Abe” Jones 06-29-2006
We’ll think about what Freedom’s cost Those who fought and those we lost We’ll stand tall and proud and say, “I’m glad I’m from the USA!”
Since it was signed in Seventy-six There’s some who’ve tried some dirty tricks To change they way those words are read To change it to their way, instead.
It has withstood the test of time Protected Rights of yours and mine It checks and balances those things Heard when the sound of Freedom rings.
But hear me loud and hear me clear There are still those we need to fear Who would take those Rights away Little by little and day by day.
Don’t let anyone try to change The way we live or rearrange The American way of life we know Born, two hundred thirty years ago.
For, once it starts to slip away There’ll be no Independence Day And too late we’ll look and see We’re not “The Land of the Free!”
