god bless the usa

Published Jul. 4, 2008

This is the song by Lee Greenwood.   I think it says it all. 

 

 

If tomorrow all the things were gone I’d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I’d 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’d 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 Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,

From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA,
Well, there’s pride in every American heart,
and it’s time to stand and say:

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’d 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.

Yeap the Turkey. The Philly football team would be the Philly Turkeys.. UGH!!! The Eagle was a perfect choice and I am soo glad they did not listen to Ben..

My husband said "the turkey" gobble, gobble. He came in the room after I read a long article about Mr. Franklin :o)
