For all of the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice to keep us free, here is Billy Ray Cyrus and Some Gave All:
I knew a man called him Sandy Kane
Few folks even knew his name
But a hero was he
Left a boy, came back a man
Still many just don’t understand
About the reasons we are freeI can’t forget the look in his eyes
Or the tears he cries
As he said these words to meAll gave some and some gave all
And some stood through for the red, white and blue
And some had to fall
And if you ever think of me
Think of all your liberties and recall
Some gave allNow Sandy Kane is no longer here
But his words are oh so clear
As they echo through out our land
For all his friends who gave us all
Who stood the ground and took the fall
To help their fellow manLove your country and live with pride
And don’t forget those who died America can’t you seeAll gave some and some gave all
And some stood through for the red, white and blue
And some had to fall
And if you ever think of me
Think of all your liberties and recall
Some gave allAnd if you ever think of me
Think of all your liberties and recall, yes recall
Some gave allSome gave all
Remember what we are really celebrating this weekend. Not the beginning of summer, not the cookouts and barbeques. The brave men and women who gave their lives that we may remain free.
