The Flag's on Fire (2021 Mix) - Bertie Higgins

Lyrics by：Bertie Higgins

Composed by：Bertie Higgins

I was born and I was raised

In the land of the brave and free

Took mama's homemade apple pie to school with me

And every morning we'd say the pledge

Learn American history

I'd show those precious medals

Daddy died for across the sea

But now the flag's on fire the flag's on fire

It's up to you and me to raise old glory higher

If they burn the flag of freedom

For all the world to see

They'll never burn the freedom out of me

At seventeen my girl and me

Made every single home game

Before the start with hand on heart

We'd stand up proud and sing

And how we prayed that one day

We'd hear wedding bells ring

'Til that day I was called away

About some terrible mid-east thing

But now the flag's on fire the flag's on fire

It's up to you and me to raise old glory higher

If they burn the flag of freedom

For all the world to see

They'll never burn the freedom out of me

I guess they got the right to express

How they feel about the flag

But let 'em tell it to the ones

Coming home in a body bag

In God I trust you feel you must

Stand up with me and brag

We'll tell the world that the stars and stripes

Just ain't some damned old rag

Now the flag's on fire the flag's on fire

It's up to you and me to raise old glory higher

If they burn the flag of freedom

For all the world to see

They'll never burn the freedom out of me
