Tailgate Sunrise

From the fields of Carolina

to the shores of Tennessee,

They’re standin’ guard for you and me

— strong as any oak tree.

With a rifle on their shoulder

and a promise in their chest,

They give this country nothin’ less than their best.

Raise that flag high,

let it wave in the wind,

For the brave men and women

who won’t ever give in.

Let the guitars ring out,

let the whole crowd sing

— God bless the soldiers

and the freedom they bring.

(sing it loud!)
