Fighting For the Freedom
Of The Red White and Blue

(Verse 1)
They’ve left their job’s and left their homes
All the comforts that they knew
To go take a stand for freedom
Across the ocean blue
Loved ones left behind, yet they don’t mind
It’s something they must do
They’re fighting for the freedom
Of the Red, White and Blue
(Chorus)
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
They not only serve our country; they serve for me and you
From the desert sands in foreign lands
They stand tall, proud and true
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
(Verse2)
All the loved ones back at home
Are waiting for some news
Because some soldiers make it back
While others never do
Husbands, Dads, Wives and moms
Sons and daughters too
Are off fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
(Chorus)
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
They not only serve our country; they serve for me and you
From the desert sands in foreign lands
They stand tall, proud and true
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
(Verse 3)
There will be days that Taps will play
In towns across our land
For those who gave it all, when freedom took a stand
And everything we have today we owe it all to you
The ones who fought and died for freedom of the Red, White and Blue
(Chorus)
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
They not only serve our country; they serve for me and you
From the desert sands in foreign lands
They stand tall, proud and true
They’re fighting for the freedom of the Red, White and Blue
