(written by Marty Robbins) recorded by Johnny Cash with Marty as backup I'm a God fearing patriotic, nephew of my Uncle Sam. A rough riding, fighting Yankee man. I love mom and apple pie, and the freedom that we all enjoy across this beautiful land. I work hard and I'd fight hard for the old red, white and blue. And I'll die a whole lot harder if it come whre I'd have to. I'm a flag waving patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam. A rough riding figthing Yankee man. (Chorus, with Marty) And when I see old glory waving, I think of all the brave men who had fought and died for what is right and wrong. And when I see old glory burning, by blood begins to churning and I could do some fighting of my own. (Johnny alone) I don't belie in violence, I'm a God fearing man. But I'd stand up for my country just as long as I could stand. (Johnny & Marty) 'Cause I'm a flag wavinng patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam. A rough riding fighting Yankee man. (Johnny) I'm a flag waving patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam. A rough riding fighting Yankee man. I enjoy the liberty of being what I want to be, and achieving any goal that I can. I was taught to turn the other cheek, but Teddy used to say, "Walk soft and pack a big stick, but never walk away!" And I'm a flag waving patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam. A rough riding fighting Yankee man. (Johnny & Marty) And when I see old glory waving, I think of all the brave men who had fought and died for what is right and wrong. And when I see Old Glory burning, my blood begins to churning and I could do some fighting of my own. (Johnny) "Cause I love all my brothers and wee're proud of our birth. We've got the greatest country here on God's green earth (Johnny & Marty) And I'm a flag waving patriotic nephew of my Uncle Sam A rough riding fighting Yankee man. (** Marty took this song to Johnny for him to record. Johnny said 'yes' but only if Marty would sing back up. He agreed) |
