Red white and blue


I'm part of the plan, a real live wire
I'm part of the plan and part of the electric corps
Born to die, not to lose
There's a light in the eye, it reflects fire
It has the right to apply what's needed, hearts to soar
Don't mean to imply the light is higher
Nor mean to imply we can be answered for

Another down, another death on you
Others that ignore your hate, dong what they do
Another clown leads the band of fools
Another broken hear, bleeds red, white and blue

I'm part of the plan, a real live wire
I'm part of the plan and part electric sun
Born to die, not to lose
I'm lost in the gone and taking fire
I'm waiting for the dawn these colors just won't run
In honor's embrace they do aspire
In honor's embrace no harder nor undone

And who'll be the first man to stand in the dark of the night
And who is the last of the last men to make it all right, damn rightA complicated problem and the question is the answer
You can give me liberty or I can give you death
Damn right
And if this man falls who will carry this flag to the fight
And if this man falls who will carry him out of his night, damn right
It's a simple answer to the brotherhood in blood
You can give us liberty or we can give you death
Damn right, you can give us liberty or we can give you death

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
