lyrics

The flag goes up as the sun goes down
Jets go by before we hear the sound
Rise to our feet, as if to say
Red white and blue, ‘till our dying day

The flag waves high when the tax man comes
He says you gotta pay just to be someone
It'll cost cost you plenty if you wanna stay
Red white and blue, ‘till your dying day

The flag hangs still when the wind don't blow
We keep the TVs on so the people know
They gotta toe the line; we got a debt to pay
Red white and blue, ‘till their dying day

Flag comes down; they fold it nice
Hand it to somebody’s wife
Nothing to do, nothing to say
Was red white and blue ‘till his dying day

The flag goes up, as the sun goes down
Jets go by before we hear the sound
Rise to our feet as if to say
Red white and blue, ‘till our dying day
Red white and blue, ‘till our dying day
