I Am From

I'm from the stars and stripes and the red, white, and blue I'm from the green lady in the ocean Standing proud and tall I'm from the high flying eagle I'm from the Marines, The Army The Navy, and The Air Force I'm from country music and salsa dancing I'm from cultures near and far I'm from cotton and bulweevils Dryness and flat I'm from eindmills and bluebonnets I'm from farms and ranches I'm from Buddy Holly and Peggy Sue From Raider Red, and the Masked Rider I'm from one building From one long hall where I've been my whole life I'm from America, Lubbock and Christ the King I'm from my life
