Ridin Tall & Free

Story Behind The Song

I have always wanted to honor our military with a great song. Not corny, but still meaningful lyrics and a story. I have been working on this song for several years, now bringing it to the current iteration with the current situation with global terrorism, the 911 attacks, and our strong military that has all we need to defeat our enemies. I wanted to include all the fighting branches in the lyrics, and I have done that, in so many words. I wanted to write a strong, catchy tune that would be resonate with a wide audience in America and overseas. To be proud to be an American with this lyrical and musical picture. I wanted to write a song that would make every person currently in the military or veterans plug blast it at full tilt wherever they go. This song is also targeted at bringing back some good old patriotism to this country. Something we need. The timing is perfect, with 911 still on everybody's minds, the recent successes with our military nailing Bin Ladin and Gadhafi. I think I achieved all of these objectives and still have a hot pop/rocker musically. This will take a very strong, high range male artist to do it right. Are you up to it? (No cheating - has to be the same key)

Lyrics

Verse 1
We're Ridin Tall & We're Free
And we go where we need to be
Bein just like me - in the American Military
Chorus
Oh, & we're gonna fight the way we fight
& We're gonna live the life that's right
When you are down, and you need a friend
Someone who will come back again
In the dead of night you can depend on me

To be ridin tall & set you free
Oh, Yeah - In the lands that need the peace
And we will cross the seas - Makin dreams into realities
Bridge
Makin friends where we please
We swim like seals in the seas
Flying High Flyin' Free
So High they'll never catch me!

Verse 2
We will never let them forget what they have done
& We won't let them forget that they're always on the run
We're straight & True Red White & Blue, & we'll always carry the flag for you
& we layed our lives down on that day of 911
Chorus
Bridge 2
Ridin Point smart & Mean
Like an American Marine
Stayin' free livin Clean
So we can live our dreams
Verse 3
We have the Abrams and the raptor & the seals
And we have many more that we just cannot reveal
We will take the fight to the enemy at night
& Our job will be done before the first sign of light
Chorus
End
Stayin Free Livin Clean
Fightin Smart, Fightin Mean
We're the American Marine
We're Ridin Tall & Ridin' Free
