"God Bless The USA"
Sung by: Lee
Greenwood
If tomorrow all the things were
gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.
I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart
and it's time we stand and say:
I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

"Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Ole Oak
Tree"
Sung by: Tony Orlando & Dawn
I'm comin' home, I've done my time
Now I've got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'll know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
It's been three long years
Do ya still want me? (still want me)
If I don't see a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
I'll stay on the bus
Forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
Bus driver, please look for me
'cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see
I'm really still in prison
And my love, she holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
It's been three long years
Do ya still want me? (still want me)
If I don't see a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
I'll stay on the bus
Forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
[instrumental interlude]
Now the whole damned bus is cheerin'
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons 'round the ole oak tree
I'm comin' home, mmm, mmm
(Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree)
(Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree)
(Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree)
[FADE]
This song began to be used for patriotic purposes in the U.S.
approximately 8 years after it's initial release - 1972/1973

You can wave your signs in
protest
Against America taking stands
The stands America's taken
Are the reason that you can
If everyone would go for peace
There'd be no need for war
But we can't ignore the devil
He'll keep coming back for more
Some see this in black and white
Others only gray
We're not begging for a fight
No matter what they say
We have the resolution
That should put'em all to shame
But it's a different kind of deadline
When I'm called in the game
(Chorus)
I RAQ, I rack'em up and I roll
I'm back and I'm a high tech GI Joe
I pray for peace, prepare for war
And I never will forget
There's no price too high for freedom
So be careful where you tread |
This terror isn't man to man
They can be no more than cowards
If they won't show us their weapons
We might have to show them ours
It might be a smart bomb
They find stupid people too
And if you stand with the likes of Saddam
One just might find you
(Chorus II)
I rock, I rack'em up and I roll
I'm back and I'm a high tech GI Joe
I've got infrared, I've got GPS and
I've got that good old fashioned lead
There's no price too high for freedom
So be careful where you tread
(Bridge)
Now you can come along
Or you can stay behind
Or you can get out of the way
But our troops take out the garbage
For the good old U.S.A.
I rock, I rack'em up and I roll
In the USA
I rock, I rack'em up and I roll
I'm talkin' about the USA |

"Soldier Boy"
Sung by: Shirelles
Soldier boy oh my little soldier
boy
I'll be true to you
You were my first love
And you'll be my last love
I will never make you blue
I'll be true to you
In this whole world
You can love but one girl
Let me be that one girl
For I'll be true to you
Where ever you go
My heart will follow
I love you so
I'll be true to you
Take my love with you
To any port or foreign shore
Darling you must feel for sure
I'll be true to you
Soldier boy, oh my little soldier boy
I'll be true to you.

"One Tin Soldier"
Sung by: COVEN (Dennis Lambert
and Brian Potter)
Listen children, to a story, that
was written long ago.
About a kingdom, on a mountain, and the valley folk below.
On the mountain, was a treasure, buried deep beneath a stone
and the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own.
(Chorus)
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend,
do it in the name of Heaven, you can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing, come the judgment day.
On the bloody morning after, One Tin Soldier rides away.
So the people of the valley, sent a message up the hill,
asking for the buried treasure, tons of gold for which they'd kill.
Came an answer, from the kingdom, with our brothers, we will share,
all the secrets, of our mountain, all the riches buried there.
(Chorus)
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend,
do it in the name of Heaven, you can justify it in the end.
There wont be any trumpets blowing, come the judgment day.
On the bloody morning after, One Tin Soldier rides away.
Now the valley, cried with anger, mount your horses, draw your
swords, and they killed the, mountain people.
So they won their just rewards.
Now they stand, beside the treasure, on the mountain, dark and red.
Turned the stone, and looked beneath it,
Peace on earth was all it said.
(Chorus)
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend,
do it in the name of Heaven, you can justify it in the end.
There wont be any trumpets blowing, come the judgment day.
On the bloody morning after, One Tin Soldier rides away.

"I'll Be Seeing You"
Sammy Fain / Irving Kahal
A popular song during World War II
Sung by Bing Crosby, 1944
|
I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day and through
In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children carrousel
The chestnut trees
The wishing well
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way |
I'll find in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you |

If
I Die Before You Wake [MP3]
|
To everybody back home...
If I Die Before You Wake
Sung by Dustin
Evans
|
Back home now I know you're
prob'ly sleeping,
But over here it's the middle of the day.
I finally found some time to write a letter,
Sittin' here a half a world away.
I heard about all them folks protesting,
As if I really want this war.
But that don't stop me from believing
There're just some things worth fighting for.
And if I die before you wake,
I pray the world will take
A good look at what God's given us.
If we could only understand
Everything is in His hands.
All we need is a little faith and trust.
I want you to know it ain't too high a price to pay
If I die before you wake. |
Tell everybody that I miss
them,
and I can't wait to get back home.
Until then, I'll serve my country
and be proud to wear this uniform.
And if I die before you wake,
I pray the world will take
A good look at what God's given us.
If we could only understand
Everything is in His hands.
All we need is a little faith and trust.
I want you to know it ain't too high a price to pay
If I die before you wake.
No, it ain't too high a price to pay
If I die before you wake.
Everything is in His hands |
