Lyrics
English: The men that fight for our country that you've heard many times before / Let me sing you a song, let me tell you a story that you've heard... / About the men that fight for our country for old glory to fly free / Against the blue of the sky, let me tell you about those men / The fight for a country that they left behind, many don't come back / They give their lives for their sinful nation that for god is pride / And from the lord they hide, there are people living in sinful ways / And yet our men went to fight for this country, left their loved ones alone / And many did not come home, they give their lives for old glory to fly freely / Old glory, against the blue of the sky, may all the nations of the world / Have peace and may there be war more, they fight for the country / That they left behind, many don't come back, they give their lives
