The Fightin' Side Of Me

I hear people talking bad
About the way we have to live here in this country
Harping on the wars we fight
An' griping 'bout the way things oughta be
An' I don't mind 'em switching sides
An' standing up for things they believe in
When you're running down my country, man
You're walking on the fighting side of me

You're walking on the fighting side of me
Running down the way of life
Our fighting men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singing be a warning
When you're running down my country, man
You're walking on the fighting side of me

I hear about some squirrely guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fighting
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on being free
They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of living
When you're running down my country, hoss
You're walking on the fighting side of me

You're walking on the fighting side of me
Running down the way of life
Our fighting men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song that I'm singing be a warning
When you're running down my country, man
You're walking on the fighting side of me

You're walking on the fighting side of me
Running down the way of life
Our fighting men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song that I'm singing be a warning
When you're running down my country, man
You're walking on the fighting side of me
