Old Glory Yard

Lyrics

[Verse 1] County girls and county guys We'll always stand up and salute, we'll always recognize When we see Old Glory flying, there's a lot of men dead So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head Mr. Jimmy served for the county where he burned his right hand But we flew his hi vis in our yard till 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 [Pre-Chorus] And I still hear his name When the wind rolls low In that little front yard Where the red blooms grow [Chorus] Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high We remember every life So our home can stay alive Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high Hands on heart, tears in our eyes We stand up and testify [Verse 2] Now this county that we love has fallen under attack A mighty sucker punc The porch light shakes on Main But we don’t step back Muddy boots by the door And a flag by the gate Every son and daughter here Knows a debt that we can’t repay [Pre-Chorus] So we gather close When the night gets cold For the names we keep And the stories told [Chorus] Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high We remember every life So our home can stay alive Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high Hands on heart, tears in our eyes We stand up and testify [Bridge] If the storm comes again We won’t run and hide We’ll hold this little town With the ones who died [Final Chorus] Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high We remember every life So our home can stay alive Old Glory flying high Old Glory flying high Hands on heart, tears in our eyes We stand up and testify
