It's the Fourth of July, play that TK song
Slice an apple pie, buy a cherry bomb
Go light it off on your front lawn
In the name of freedom
The house next door looks like no one's home
But there's a man inside chilled to the bone
Medals on the wall he got from a war zone
In the name of freedom
Everybody's back in town, but he's back in time
A bottle in his hand, bottle rockets in the sky
Sounds like a battle, bombs outside
He's pouring up another, hanging on for dear life
If you'd been where he's been, you wouldn't ask why
He's drinking a fifth on the Fourth of July
ย
He loves his country, hell, he fought for it
But he's back to fighting when that fuse gets lit
He ain't gonna yell at the neighborhood kids
Someone who would've died for us shouldn't have to live like this
Everybody's back in town, but he's back in time
A bottle in his hand, bottle rockets in the sky
Sounds like a battle, bombs outside
He's pouring up another, hanging on for dear life
If you'd been where he's been, you wouldn't ask why
He's drinking a fifth on the Fourth of July
ย
Foxhole memories and folded flag friends
Those flashing lights on summer nights are flashbacks for him
Yeah, whiskey numbs the pain, but don't make him forget it
But just 'cause it hurts don't mean he regrets it
Everybody's back in town, but he's back in time
A bottle in his hand, bottle rockets in the sky
Sounds like a battle, bombs outside
He's pouring up another, hanging on for dear life
If you'd been where he's been, you wouldn't ask why
He's drinking a fifth on the Fourth of July
