Red, White and Blue
A brown envelope was delivered in haste,
Knowing these words we're trying to say.
You must report.
You must obey.
To serve your country,
The American way.
The Red, White and Blue,
On every corner.
Showing the hearts and minds,
Of those we honor.
They learn mother's and father's,
Have to leave to fight,
The planes fly out family's cry,
Waving goodbye without a dry eye.
The country will mourn.
The country will cry.
Rejoicing those who make it alright.
One thing stands true,
Is the Red, White and Blue,
The place we call home that's,
Our one truest clue.
