Red, White and Blue



My country was attacked by a bunch of low
life cowards,
Who crashed planes into the Pentagon and the
World Trade Center towers,
Many of our citizens died and, for that, we
suffer much,
Is this what we get for being loving, kind
and such?
But, with the love for one another
that we have, we shall succeed,
In overcoming this heinous, murdering,
terroists deed,
So, wave your flags high, my fellow
Americans, 'cause we know it's true,
No cowards will ever dampen the spirit of
the good ol' red, white and blue!
