about

a song about how we tend to forget why we even have memorial day off. this one has a country vibe.

lyrics

three day weekend
time for fun
ice filled coolers in the sun
food on the grill is almost done
its a big ol' celebration

on this this extra day of rest
this monday off with which we're blessed
i have just one small request
that we all remember

say a small prayer of thanksgiving
for those who fought for our way of living
for Americans like you and me
in the land of liberty
for all our freedoms that were won
by brave daughters and sons
who gave their lives to keep us free
in the land of liberty

a day off work
we party hard
with good friends
in our backyard
why don't we give
more regard
to those who are not with us
the siege of Bastonge and Kae Sahn
Chosin Reservoir to Afghanistan
every woman child and man
should remember those who took a stand
