Lyrics

Verse 1:
He went through hell and back to earn it
Gave them the right to burn it
Bled red, white and blue til he died
Soldiers pulled it from his pine box
Handed it to Grandma
It caught her tears as she said goodbye
To a man who gave everything he had For a folded flag.
Verse 2:
There ain't a book up on the shelf
Could beat the stories he would tell
Like when the ramp fell open and they stormed Utah Beach
Son, we were scared but when we seen 'em
That eagle screamed for freedom
You could hear the thunder whey we started rainin' steel!
So many gave everything they had For a folded flag.
CHORUS:
It sits proudly on my mantel
So, I never take for granted
Those who stood and served no questions asked
Some say wars "we don't need em"
But they sure do love this freedom
Me, I'm thankful for the ones who breathed their last
For a folded flag!
Verse 3:
Every now and then
I sit and talk with him
Say a prayer there on the Arlington grass
Lord take care of this great nation
And this don't care generation
Cause there's still a few around like ok' Grandad
Who are willing to give everything they have For a folded flag.
CHORUS:
It sits proudly on my mantel
So, I never take for granted
Those who stood and served no questions asked
Some say wars "we don't need em"
But they sure do love this freedom
Me, I'm thankful for the ones who breathed their last
For a folded flag!
