Lyrics
?Red White and Blue Christmas?
There?s a young man in Afghanistan on the wrong end of a gun
He?s got a family back in Texas and a brand new baby son
There?ll be no celebration no time for Santa Claus
He?s layin? down his precious life standin? up for the cause
Chorus
It?s gonna be a red white and blue Christmas
Red blood flowin? in the hot white sand from cold, blue steel
Gonna be a red white and blue Christmas
For the sons and daughters of America who won?t be home this year
There?s a young girl in a strange new world - she?s a prisoner of war
She?s been tortured by the enemy but she?s true blue to the corps
Coulda been a debutant ? coulda been a P.H.D.
She?s an American beauty, doin? her duty ? fightin? for you and me
Chorus
Bridge
So remember while you?re shoppin? in your nice suburban mall
There?s people halfway ?round the world who are givin? it their all
Chorus
Chorus:
Outro
There?s some that?s in Afghanistan ?some in Vietnam
Some back in the gulf war and in Somalia
Some way back in World War two and even World War one
They?re still in Korea ? I remember desert storm
They?re America?s sons and daughters who won?t be home this year
