If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I'd worked for all my life.
And I had to start again
With just my children and my wife.
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be livin' here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up
Next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say
That I'm proud to be an American,
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up
Next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the U.S.A.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up,
Next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,
God bless the U-S-A!
Next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,
God bless the U-S-A!
God Bless the USA. Lee Greenwood

Wow. I never would have thought that song could be anything but totally cheesy, but set to these pictures, it's really poignant!
Without the pictures, still total cheese, though.
Well, that brought tears to my eyes! I have always love this song and after having my son serve 2 tours in Iraq, it means much more to me than ever! Thank you!
So cool. I have chills on my arms. Great pictures, especially the ones at the end. I married a handsome Army officer, 39 yrs ago & we both had Navy dads. I get all choked up when it comes to the military & what they do in service for all of us. Thank you.
