Independence Day freedom to be
The red stands for blood that was spilled
The blue the veins that bled
The white the purity
Of the lives they led
Freedom came
at a cost
Be sure to be thankful
For what they lost
The flag that flies
The fireworks high
Celebrations for independence
In the sky
We have our parties
Sit out on our lawn
Salute a solder
All before dawn
Raise your glass
Say a prayer
Because of the sacrifice of many
We breathe free air
Independence day
Gives us freedom to be
Men and women
free.
