The Patriot

I Pledge Allegiance to the Flag of The United States of America… He says his pledge each day He rises for colors each morning Standing at attention Right hand by his right brow With pride swelling in his chest This man has seen war He was born and bred to serve He would fight his country’s fight Across oceans, away from wife and kids Praying to return to them safely one night At home, he is a soldier Having fought on the frontline For his loving kids and adoring wife He fights for their freedom and safety By defending ours and risking his life That patriot is a brother An uncle, a confidant, a friend He may be the proudest of fathers A son with a brighter future Fighting for Uncle Sam’s daughters O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave… To speak these words are glorious If you live them and believe Hold them high and hold them true And live like the patriot Bleeding red, white, and blue
