Red, White, Black And Blue

(album: Star Spangled Bangers - 2021)

It wasn't the first time, it wasn't the last time
But I was loving you on the second of June
We were flying higher up 'til the 4th of July
But like the fireworks in the night, this love we burned out soon

Everybody just said stop it, but sometimes you can't stop it
Girl, you were like a rocket in your Daddy's phone
Oh, but you rolled like thunder when the days were no longer warmer
When the winds blew cold, you didn't come around no more

You let American summer mean anything to you
Cause you left my heart red, white, black and blue

Come girl are you back home and help to keep me strong
I got grounds still here two brothers that I call my own
Oh I want you still with me, we're still living in Dixie
But they labor days are coming all the way since you've been gone

If those American summers mean anything to you
Cause you left our hearts red, white, black and blue

Looking back I don't guess I asked him bout the wolves in his pasture
But looking back I don't guess asking would've done no harm
But I heard the truth there in a song with the sound of them twenty-one guns
Then folding up that flag and putting in my daddy's arms

Don't those American summers mean everything to you
Cause I've tattooed my heart red, white, black and blue
I covered my whole heart red, white, black and blue
