Don’t know if Q or any fellow anons are Merle Haggard fans but I thought I would drop this addition to our growing list of “fight songs”
The Fightin’ Side of Me
I hear people talkin' bad
About the way they have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be.
An' I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
An' standin' up for things they believe in.
When they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep.
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'.
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
I read about some squirrely guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'.
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free.
They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'.
When they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep.
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'.
When you're runnin' down our country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep.
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'.
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.
