Me And Crippled Soldiers
Merle Haggard
D
Now that it's alright to burn the stars and stripes
G D
Guess nobody really needs old Uncle Sam
A7
Might as well burn the Bill of Rights as well
And let our country go straight to hell
D A7 D
Only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
G
Should they throw away their purple hearts,
And hide their uniforms?
D
And be proud to see old glory on the ground?
Somebody said “they'd take us without a shotâ€
I don't know if they will or not
D A7 D
But only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
D
Has the holocaust been so long? Is Hitler really gone?
G D
As we burn our only cause for Vietnam
A7
There's the mom who lost her son
Is this the freedom that we've won?
D A7 D
For only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
G
I've been known to wave the flag before
And saddened when we went to war
D
Fighting for the symbol of our land
For all the wars we fought and won to keep Old Glory waving
A7 D
Today they ruled to burn Old Glory down
A7 D
And only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
A7 D
Yeah only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
