Independence Day


Independence Day - martina mcbride

Well she seemed all right by dawns early
Light though she looked a little
Worried and weak she tried to pretend
He wasnt drinkin aagain but daddy left
The proof on her cheek and I was only eight years old
That summer and I always
Seemed to be in the way
So I took myself down to the fair in town on
Independence day

Well word gets a round in a small
Small town they said he was a dangerous man
But mama was proud and she stood her ground
She knew she was on the losin end
Some folks whispered some folks talked
But everybody looked the other way and
When time ran out there was
No one about on indpendence day
Let freedom ring

Let the white dove sing let the
Whole world know that
Today is a day of reckoning let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong roll
The stone away let the guilty pay
Its independence day
Well she lit up the sky that fourth of july
By the time the firemen come they
Just put out the flames and took down
Some names and send me to the county home
Now I aint sayin its right or its wrong
But maybe its the only way talk
About your revolution its indepenednce day
Let freedom ring
Let the white dove sing let the
Whole world know that
Today is a day of reckoning let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong roll
The stone away let the guilty pay
Its independence day
The Stone Away
It's independence day
