Rough Around the Edges

When God made him, he threw away the mold Always thinks outside of the box, does not fit a profile Always thinks positive, hard to get him down Does not talk much, but always has something to say Has a mind of his own, tries to always have a smile Knows that it takes more muscles to frown Tries to walk a straight line, but to the beat of his own drum He is not a rebel or a fanatic, but a little different He knows the pen is more mighty than the sword Looking forward to tomorrow, as it yet to come Cause yesterday, has come and went And always believes in The Good Lord Believe in a helping hand, not a hand out In honest talking and common sense To him, "ONE NATION UNDER GOD", is this great land Very simple, "If you do not love it, get out Never let your guard down and a good defense "When you sign on with a outfit, you ride for the brand" In freedom of speech, not told what you can say In the constitution, that is our back bone Not being a robot, but being his own man The right to pray anywhere, before they take that away God is our foundation, so leave him alone A little rough around the edges, BUT A PROUD AMERICAN
