Red White and Blue

RED WHITE AND BLUE
-------------------------------------------

Proudly they stand for the red white and blue,
Not asking for honor in any way 
No these military men just give to this country for me and for you.
And freedom we are living because of the sacrifices they have given.
If you could only understand the kind of courage it takes
To be a military woman
to be a military man- 
To fight for what they believe in
Never complaining for conditions they been threw—
Because of this love for America
Because of the Red white and blue
They do what they do 
Away from loved ones which is really brave-
But knowing some don’t make it home
They go to the grave-
Make’s me see how blessed we are in this Country
Although not everyone cares and not everyone understands
The red white and blue 
Like all our military friends and families
Like all our military husbands and wife’s do
Supporting these military men and women
For all the things they bravely do
As a military wife I will continue to proudly stand
For the red white and blue
For all our military men and woman
Thanking them for their love for America
Thanking them for their love for people like me and you
Because without these brave soldiers there would be no
Red white and blue.

Thank you for your comment on Red White and Blue. I am a military wife who proudly respects the military. If it wasnt for the sacrifices they give we wouldnt have the things we do now like freedom.
