Happy 234th, America!!!
Jul. 4th, 2010 05:31 amYou're a grand old flag, you're a high-flying flag,
And forever in peace may you wave!
You're the emblem of the land I love,
The home of the free and the brave!
Every heart beats true 'neath the red, white, and blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag;
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on that grand old flag!
Have a safe and sane Fourth, y'all!
