"The Pledge of Allegiance"
excerpt from Lee Greenwood's album - American Patriot - listed below.

"Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings,
but they cannot touch the foundation of America.
These acts shattered steel,
but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve." - George W. Bush

God Bless The U.S.A.If tomorrow all the things were gone I've worked for all my life and I had to start again with just my children and my wife, I thank my lucky stars to be living here today 'cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that away. And 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 Minnisota To the hills of Tennessee Across the plains of Texas From sea to shinning sea From Detroit down to Houston And New York to L.A. Where there's pride in every American heart And its time we stand and say: That 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. And 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. |

America, The Beautiful
You know, in the Bayous of Louisiana "Quel Beau Te" Thats what the Cajuns say. And in New York's Little Italy "Que bella terra" Thats how they say it in Italy. And in the beer halls of Milwaukee "Beshund das land." And its "Que lindo pais" Thats what you'll hear them say along the border Down by the Rio Grande. You know there's a lot of ways to say it And its a priviledge to play it Because a lot of good people earned it And this is how I like it: |

Song Of The Patriot
I'm a flag waving patriotic
Nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough ridin', fightin' Yankee man.
I love mom and apple pie
And the freedoms that we all enjoy
Across this beautiful land
I worked hard and I'd 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 wavin' patriotic
Nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding, fightin' Yankee man.
And when I see "Old Glory" wavin'
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,
But I'd stand up for my country
Just as long as I could stand
'Cause I'm a flag waving patriotic
Nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding, fighting Yankee man.
I'm a flag wavin' patriotic
Nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding, fightin' Yankee man.
And I enjoy the liberty of being what I want to be
And achieving any goal that I can
I was taught to turn the other cheek,
But Teddy used to say:
"Walk soft and pack a big stick,
but never walk away."
And I'm a flag waving patriotic
Nephew of my Uncle Sam
A rough riding, fighting Yankee man.
And when I see "Old Glory" wavin'
I think of all the brave men
That 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 we're proud of our birth

This Land Is Your Land
This land.
This land.
This land is your land
This land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
Hey! This land was made for you and me.
As I was walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless sky way
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me.
I was born to ramble and follow my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of the diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
Say! This land was made for you and me.
This land is your land
This land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
Hey! This land was made for you and me.
This land.
This land.
When the sun comes shining and I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving
And the dust clouds rolling
And the fog was setting in
A voice was chanting
Say! This land was made for you and me.
This land is your land
This land is my land
From California to the New York Islands
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
Hey! This land was made for you and me.
Well, This land was made for you and me.
This land is your land.
This land is my land.
This land is our land.
This land.

The Star-Spangled Banner![]()
Oh, say can you see by he dawn?s early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight?s last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O?er the ramparts we watch?d, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets? red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there; Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O?er the land of the free, and the home of the brave? On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe?s haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o?er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it caches the gleam of the morning?s first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream, ?Tis the star-spangled banner, Oh, long may it wave, O?er the land of the free, and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and battle?s confusion, A home and a country, shall leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps? pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave, O?er the land of the free, and the home of the brave! Oh, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand, Between their lov?d home, and the war?s desolation! Blest with vict?ry and peace, may the Heav?n rescued land, Praise the Power that hath made and preserv?d us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto - In God is our Trust; And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave, O?er the land of the free, and the home of the brave! Francis Scott Key (1779 - 1843)

You're a Grand Old FlagGeorge M. Cohen Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) You're a Grand Old Flag You're a high-flying flag And forever in peace may you wave. You're the emblem of the land I love, The home of the free and the brave! Every heart beats true Under Red, White, and Blue, Where there's never a boast or brag. But should auld acquaintance be forgot Keep your eye on that Grand Old Flag.
