The Song of the Patriot
(Johnny Cash & Marty Robbins)

(Click for music)

I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man
I love mom and apple pie,
And the freedoms that we all enjoy across this beautiful land
I work hard and I fight hard for the old Red, White, and Blue
And I’ll die a whole lot harder if it comes to where I have to.

I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man.
And when I see old Glory waving
I think of all the brave men who have fought and died for what is right and wrong.
And when I see old Glory burnin', my blood begins to churnin'
And I could do some fightin’ of my own.

I don’t believe in violence, I’m a God fearing man
Bul I’ll stand up for my country just as long as I can stand.

Cause I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man.
I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man.

And I enjoy the liberty of being what I want to be and achieve any goals that I can
I was taught to turn the other cheek, but daddy used to say
Walk soft and pack a big stick, but never walk away.

I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man
And When I see old Glory waving
I think of all the brave men who have fought and died for what is right and wrong.
And when I see old Glory burnin', my blood begins to churnin'
And I could do some fightin’ of my own.

Cause I love all my brothers and were proud of our group
We’ve got the greenest country here on God’s green earth
I’m a flag waving, patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding fighting Yankee man.

ATTENTION:  VIETNAM VETS!

 

Thirty years have passed since the end of the Vietnam War. During those three decades, the brave men and women who served in that conflict have never been given the recognition they deserve for their heroic sacrifices in service to our country. Now, the time for that recognition has come. Welcome Home…America’s Tribute to Vietnam Veterans will be the homecoming celebration they never received.

This first-ever national event will take place June 13-June 19, 2005 in Branson, Missouri. Including veterans, their families and friends, 100,000 participants from across the country are expected to attend.

For Vietnam Veterans and their loved ones, and our nation, this celebration is profoundly important. By honoring those who answered their country’s call during a difficult time in our nation’s history, the legacy of duty, honor and country will be passed on to America’s sons and daughters who will be called to serve in the future. It’s an idea whose time has come.
