WHERE THE STARS AND STRIPES...
AND THE EAGLE FLY
(performed by Aaron Tippen)
Well if you ask me where I come from
Here's what I tell everyone
I was born by God's dear grace
In an extra-ordinary place
Where the stars and stripes and the eagle fly...
It's a big old land with countless dreams.
Happiness ain't out of reach
Hard work pays off the way it should
Yea, I've seen enough to know that we got it good
Where the stars and stripes and the eagle fly...
There's a lady that stands
in a harbor for what we believe
And there's a bell that still echoes
the price that it costs to be free
I pledge allegiance to this flag
And if that bothers you, well that's too bad
But if you've got pride, and you're proud you do
Hey, we can use some more like me and you
Where the stars and stripes and the eagle fly...
Yes, There's a lady that stands
in a harbor for what we believe
And there's a bell that still echoes
the price that it cost to be free
No, it ain't the only place on earth
It's the only place that I prefer
To love my wife and raise my kids
Hey, the same way that my daddy did
Where the stars and stripes and the eagle fly...
Where the stars and stripes and the eagle fly...
