Intro: verse 1 It's the guts and it's the glory, A hundred stripes a hundred stories, It's the pledge of allegiance on the fourth of July, It's them hand written letters from home, It's the sleepless nights alone, It's his new born baby he left with his wife. Mr. Red White and Blue, Lay down his li - fe, Mr. Red White and Blue, For these stars and stri - pes, Hey. verse 2 From the fields of Indiana, From the swamps of Louisiana, To the golden coast of Californ, Uncle Sam's the only family he's got, His purple heart beat won't stop, And his eighteenth birthday, Was the day he was born. Mr. Red White and Blue, Lay down his li - fe, Mr. Red White and Blue, For these stars and stri - pes, Mr. Red White and Blue, Stand on the front li - ne, Mr. Red White and Blue, Pay the ultimate pri – ce, Interlude Ohhh. verse 3 He was the man of the house where he was born, His family is proud but torn. But if you knew him you would understand, He was raised on how to be brave, Just to see the flag still wave, And then he came home with only one hand, He's Mr. Red White and Blue, Lay down his li - fe, Mr. Red White and Blue, For these stars and stri - pes, Mr. Red White and Blue, Stand on the front li - ne, Mr. Red White and Blue, Pay the ultimate pri – ce, Mr. Red White and Blue, Lay down his li - fe, Mr. Red White and Blue, For these stars and stri - pes, Outro March in line, March in line. Hey. Hey.
