Flags of Freedom |
| Today’s the day our younger son |
| Is going off to war |
| Fightin’in the age old battle |
| We’ve sometimes won before |
| Flags that line old main street |
| Are blowin’in the wind |
| These must be the flags of freedom flyin' |
| Church bells are ringin' |
| As the families stand and wave |
| Some of them are cryin' |
| But the soldiers look so brave |
| Lookin’straight ahead |
| Like they know just where they’re goin' |
| Past the flags of freedom flyin' |
| Sister has her headphones on She hears the music blasting |
| She sees her brother marchin’by |
| Their bond is everlasting |
| Listening to Bob Dylan singin’in 1963 |
| Watching the flags of freedom flyin' |
| She sees the president speakin' |
| On a Flat-screen TV |
| In the window of the old appliance store |
| She turns to see her brother again |
| But he’s already walkin’past |
| The flags of freedom flyin' |
| Have you seen the flags of freedom? |
| What color are they now? |
| Do you think that you believe in yours |
| More than they do theirs somehow? |
| When you see the flags of freedom flyin' |
| Today’s the day our younger son |
| Is goin’off to war |
| Fightin’in the age old battle |
| We’ve sometimes won before |
| Flags that line old main street |
| Are blowin’in the wind |
| These must be the flags of freedom flyin' |
