[Toby Keith - Live Introduction By Toby Keith of ‘Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue The Angry American lyrics]
Have in here tonight? Crowd cheers
In the days following september
11th last year everybody that was a poet or
A writer or a song writer of
Any kind Had a reason
To write some words down or thoughts
Down on a peice of paper
And I was no diffrent thats what
You do when I do
And my father served in the army in the 50s
He lost his right eye in
A training combat mission he came home
He put a flag up on the farm I was raised on
I lost him six months prior to the attacks
On New York City and The United
States and that flag that flew out in
That yard it's flown there everyday
He raised me right and he never bitched
One time about loseing his eye
I never heard him cry about it one time
He was glad to go do it and that's why
We're free today and it's our turn to
Stand on what our fathers
And forefathers did for
Us and make sure we don't let'em down
I wrote a song in the following days
After september 11th it's called The
Angry American and I wanna send this
Out to my father tonight
