Red, White & Blue

1. My grandmama worked on a factory floor
Sewing leather for minimum wage
While my granddaddy worked all the beer joints in town
Tryin' to forget the memories he made
Because when daddy was born in 1945
We'd been fighting for what we believed
Along with five other brothers who stood by his side
They were ready they were willing to bleed.

[Chorus:]
Red white and blue
Those colors mean something
Those colors stay true
Like my family before me
I'll feel it too
The blood that's in my veins
Runs red white and blue.

2. My daddy grew up on the wrong side of poor
Rubbin' nickels together for heat
Well he and his sister had barely got by
With the clothes and the shoes on their feet
So he joined the service when he was 18
Like his daddy and his uncles before
He was ready to die for what he believed
To fight for what's worth fightin' for.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Well me and my sisters got kids of our own
And my brothers comin up on sixteen
And my daddy taught us all how to live off the land
And how to stand up for what we believe.

[Chorus]

Like my family before me
I feel it too
The blood that's in my veins
Runs red white and blue
The blood that's in my veins
Runs red white and blue.
