Freedom Song Lyrics

The story began

In seventy three

When the Sons of Liberty

Discarded the tea

And after the start

Of the battle cry

Independence was stated on

The fourth of July

Two hundred Years

Have slowly gone by

But we still got freedom and

We know that it smells like

Firewood burnin'

Spent cases smokin'

And them big ol' diesel trucks drivin' by

Tastes like homegrown moonshine

From an old mason jar

And a momma's homemade apple pie

On the twenty-first of June

The ninth state agreed

That We The People stand

For Justice and Liberty

And in less than four years

To keep us from harm

We protected free speech and

The right to bear arms

Two hundred Years

Have slowly gone by

But we still got freedom and

We know that it sounds like

A steel string guitar

Playin' songs of the free

That tell the stories of how we came to be

Feels like a kiss from the sunshine

When you're out on a ride

While the sun sets along the country side

Looks like a father and son

Goin' fishin' in July

And the sight of an eagle soarin' high

But this didn't come

Without sacrifice

So many had to pay the ultimate price

So we won't forget

Even as the time flies

The ones who moved on but still

Call out Semper Fi

Two hundred Years

Have slowly gone by

But we still got freedom and

We know that it comes at

The cost of the brave souls

Who carry the pride

Of the soldiers who fought by their side

The ones who left us behind

To earn their wings

So that we may sing Let Freedom Ring
