Independence Day

Well she seemed all right by dawn's early lightThough she looked a little worried and weakShe tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' againBut daddy left the proof on her cheekAnd I was only eight years old that summerAnd I always seemed to be in the waySo I took myself down to the fair in townOn Independence DayWell word gets a round in a small, small townThey said he was a dangerous manBut Mama was proud and she stood her groundShe knew she was on the losin' endSome folks whisperedSome folks talkedBut everybody looked the other wayAnd when time ran out there was no one aboutOn Independence Day(Chorus)Let freedom ring,Let the white dove singLet the whole world know thatToday is a day of reckoningLet the weak be strong,Let the right be wrongRoll the stone away,Let the guilty pay,It’s independence dayWell she lit up the sky that fourth of JulyBy the time the firemen comeThey just put out the flames and took down some namesAnd send me to the county homeNow I aint sayin' it's right or it's wrongBut maybe it's the only wayTalk about your revolutionIt's Indepenedence Day(Chorus)Let freedom ring,Let the white dove singLet the whole world know thatToday is a day of reckoningLet the weak be strong,Let the right be wrongRoll the stone away,Let the guilty pay,It’s independence dayRoll the stone awayIt's Independence Day
