Right down the road in any small town
You'll find a man who laid it all down
On the line
Oh, a thousand times
Across the street and a few blocks south
You'll find a wife in a little brick house
Stayin' strong
Trying to make it a home
They live for hope
They live for honor
They live for each other
Their sons and their daughters
All for love
Here's to the ones who stand their ground
Here's to the ones who never back down
Oh, oh here's to the home of the free
Here's to the ones who still believe in taking chances
And running down a dream
Oh, oh here's to the red, white, and blue
Here's to people like me and you
I know a kid in a one horse town
He believes his future is yet to be found
Oh, he says the time is now
Don't know much about the American dream
Just wants to make his dad proud of what he sees
Oh, proud of what he sees
To live for hope
To live for honor
To live for each other
Our sons and our daughters
All for love
Here's to the ones who stand their ground
Here's to the ones who never back down
Oh, oh here's to the home of the free
Here's to the ones who still believe in taking chances
And running down a dream
Oh, oh here's to the red, white, and blue
Here's to people like me and you
We live for hope
We live for honor
We live for each other
Our sons and our daughters
All for love
Here's to the ones who stand their ground
Here's to the ones who never back down
Oh, oh here's to the home of the free
Here's to the ones who still believe in taking chances
And running down a dream
Oh, oh here's to the red, white, and blue
Here's to people like me and you
OH!
