What We're Fighting For by Dave Dudley...Can you name a PATRIOTIC song of the day?
"My dearest Mama they just gave us time to write
I miss you and there's something on my mind tonight
At mail call I received your letter here today
But I don't understand the things you say
You tell me there are people marching in our streets
The signs they carry say that we don't fight for peace
There's not a soldier in this foreign land who likes this war
Oh Mama tell them what we're fighting for
Tell them that we're fighting for the old Red White and Blue
Did they forget Pearl Harbor and Korea too
Another flag must never fly above our nation's door
Oh Mama tell them what we're fighting for
From Maine to California there are many noble men
Who know the price of war and pray we'd never fight again
But the world must learn that we will fight we will protect our shore
Oh mama tell them what we're fighting for
Oh Mama tell them what we're fighting for oh Mama tell them what we're fighting for"

I have so many of these type of songs that I listen to because of hubby being Army. I usually play them even more when hubby is deployed. So lets see, which one.
This one doesn't seem to be posted much so:
Brian McKnight with Rascal Flatts
Red, White, and Blue
Baby
Tomorrow I'ma hafta fight
Leaving at first light
And all I can think of is you
Baby
I can hear you tryin not to cry
I'm afraid and I ain't gonna lie
I gotta do what I've been trained to do
I'm a little tired, but I'm doin fine
I got my brothers back and he's watching mine
Just keep praying that we'll all make it through
I fight for what's right
And I fight for what is true
Mostly I'm fighting to get back to you
We don't see black
We don't see white
We just see what we hafta do
All we see is red, white, and blue
Fighting for our red, white, and blue
Baby
How's our little baby girl?
Does she know her daddy's half way round the world?
Tell her she is my heart
Well...
I've only seen her in a photograph
Don't know whether to cry or laugh
While I'm out here in the dark
I get so damn tired but I'm doin fine
Got my brothers back and he's watchin mine
Just keep prayin that we'll all make it through
I fight for what's right
And I fight for what is true
Mostly I'm fighting to get back to you
We don't see black
We don't see white
We don't see what we hafta do
All we see is red, white, and blue
Fighting for our red, white, and blue
I don't know the reasons why
Sometimes at night I sit and cry
It's hard for me to tell you what I'm goin through
What I'm goin through...
When all we have is this telephone
On this telephone...
Don't know when I'll be comin home
I just need you to keep praying that I do
I fight for what's right
And I fight for what is true
Mostly I'm fighting to get back to you
We don't see black
We don't see white
We don't see what we hafta do
All we see is red, white, and blue
All we see is red, white, and blue
Fighting for our red, white, and blue

American girls and american guys
Well always stand up and salute
Well always recognize
When we see old glory flying
Theres a lot of men dead
So we can sleep in peace at night
When we lay down our head
My daddy served in the army
Where he lost his right eye
But he flew a flag out in our yard
Until the day that he died
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy
In the land of the free.
Now this nation that I love
Has fallen under attack
A mighty sucker punch came flyin in
From somewhere in the back
Soon as we could see clearly
Through our big black eye
Man, we lit up your world
Like the 4th of july
Hey uncle sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the statue of liberty
Started shakin her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, its gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom
Start ringin her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue
Justice will be served
And the battle will rage
This big dog will fight
When you rattle his cage
And youll be sorry that you messed with
The u.s. of a.
cause well put a boot in your ***
Its the american way
Hey uncle sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the statue of liberty
Started shakin her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, its gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom
Start ringin her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue
