American Son |
This land is hard, this land is mean |
This dirt is ripped on the blood it’s seen |
Raised on a good book, hand on a gun |
Never backin' down, the American son |
I was born from the blood of a workin' man |
Stand and fight for those who can’t |
I put my hand 'cross my heart even through the hard times |
I get chills on my back when I see Old Glory fly |
'Cause this land is hard, this land is mean |
This dirt is ripped on the blood it’s seen |
Raised on a good book, hand on a gun |
Never backin' down, the American son |
I ain’t afraid to sweat, I ain’t afraid to bleed |
Stand along for what we believe |
Wrap around my feet, live on my knees |
There ain’t no man gonna take it from me |
'Cause this land is hard, this land is mean |
This dirt is ripped on the blood it’s seen |
Raised on a good book, hand on a gun |
Never backin' down, the American son |
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America |
And to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, Indivisible, |
with liberty and justice for all |
We come from the farms and the ranches |
Oilfield hand, the ones that turn wrenches |
We built these bridges and roads |
The big rig droppers, callin' low |
The mason, the cop, the coal miner |
The banker, the lawyer, the fire-fighter |
I’m the man in the shadows who carries a gun |
I’m a shootin' dog, the American son |
I am the American son |
Never backin' down, ain’t never gonna run |
I am the American son |
Never backin' down, ain’t never gonna run |
I am the American son |
Never backin' down, ain’t never gonna run |
I am the American son |
Gonna take it to my grave when they day is done |
