Out on the front lines they stand tall
With courage woven into every call
Away from home in the dead of night
Protecting freedoms in the morning light
From farmers' fields to city streets
They wear the stars and stripes with pride
In every heart a promise beats
To keep our flag waving high and wide
Hats off to heroes both near and far
For sacrifices made they bear the scars
Through battles fierce and peace they bring
We thank 'em kindly let freedom ring
From ancient wars to modern day
Their spirit guides us come what may
In every fold of every flag
Lives the story of the brave
Hats off to heroes both near and far
For sacrifices made they bear the scars
Through battles fierce and peace they bring
We thank 'em kindly let freedom ring
For every tear a loved one sheds
For fallen soldiers that we've led
We'll raise a glass and bow our heads
In gratitude our hearts are wed
