Four decades ago an man left Mississippi To fight the war in Vietnam... Did two tours and got shot received the metal of honor When he got home he wasn,t the same man. But when you get home tonight and give thanks to your maker For your loved ones and the food on your table Say a prayer for the ones who lost their lives And the men left in the field of battle. A heroes welcome that needs to be told To pass through the ages of the young and old They fought for the truth and the will to survive All American by Birth and born with Southern Pride. Chorus: So raise the blade in the Heart of the USA Oh...oh..oh..We're all part of he USA Gimme them Stars and Bars for heritage not hate Oh...oh...oh...It's the Heart of the USA.
