Lyrics

Flag Day
©2005 Ross James

(1st Verse)
Roll them off the airplane
Don?t give them faces don?t give them names
And don?t take pictures don?t tell the truth
Wrap them up in red, white and blue

(Chorus)
It?s another flag day
I?ve seen them way too often
Draped over the coffins
And the quivering lips call them home
In a box all alone

(2nd Verse)
Corporal Sanchez, twenty three
Leaves a wife and family
And Private Olsen, prom king
Three days shy of nineteen

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
A million flags all in a row
One of these days it?s someone you know

(Chorus)
Another flag day
I?ve seen them way too often
Draped over the coffins
And the quivering lips call them home
In a box all alone
