United States of America



Colors O' The US of A

Born ‘n’ bred ‘neath the colors
O’ the red ‘n’ white ‘n’ blue display
Tis from deep within my heart
That I applaud the freedoms o’ my US of A!

I hear my husband's cries
Each ‘n ev’ry designated veterans day
Mourning friends dead ‘n’ alive
Who gave their best for our US of A!

I’ve watched the nightmare
On a friend’s face that he couldn’t chase away
And yet when he sees Old Glory
His mind stands proud ‘n’ tall to bless his US of A!

The protesters o’ the world
Create frenzy to hold our patriotism at bay
And it’s in spite o’ the likes o’ them
That I’ll ne’er desert the uniforms o’ the US of A!

For the leaders o’ the free
I’ll kneel upon my knees in a whisper ‘n’ pray
Asking my God to guide their decisions
In preserving this nation, the grand ol' US of A!
