Re: 4th. July
One of the only songs I've ever heard written specifically for the 4th of July .
R.I.P Chris.
Happy 4th everyone .

Fourth Of July Rodeo Lyrics :
Just about two hundred years ago
they signed that declaration
Tellin' everybody in the whole wide world
they're gonna start a brand new nation
From that day on the 4th of July has been a holiday
To the rich man, poor man, and everybody
else but the cowboys in the RCA
Well I get on the phone and call the airlines
rent-a-cars and Greyhound stations
Cause I've entered bout thirteen rodeos
out across the great big nation
Got the car tuned up
the tanks full of gas
I've got money in my hand
And if I ain't overdrawn by the end of the week
at the bank I'm a lucky man
Chorus:
It's the 4th of July on the rodeo trail
it'll drive you insane
My wife's worried home by the telephone
I'm on the road again
It's the Forth of July on the rodeo trail
if I ever make it home I swear
I'm gonna to hang up my hat
put up my riggin' sack
And for a month I'm gonna stay right there
Well I've been on the road about three days now
and I haven't had a minutes rest
There's dark circles all around my bloodshot eyes
and my face is now a whiskered mess
Boy I'd sure like a bath and a home cooked meal
but for now I must be satisfied
With this double super-duper half cooked burger
And a side of grease soaked french fries
Well the week's nearly over and I wonder
to myself will I ever make it home alive
When a bronc fell on me up in Calgary
when he slipped tryin' to make his high dive
And the plane and the pilot that we rented
looked like surplus from World War I
And I thought any times about suicide
but I haven't found myself a gun.
repeat Chorus:
R.I.P Chris.
Happy 4th everyone .

Re: 4th. July
Seen and heard alot of Happy 4th of July all day. That is good and fine. But to take out the Christ out of Christmas is to others as to say Happy 4th of July to me and alot others... Everone want to watch the fireworks and cook out and to have another day off of work. Good for them, I guess. Right now I have friends and soldiers in Afganistan not doing any of this. Many, many, many Americans have forgotten or don't care about this date anymore, or have not been taught correctly on what it really means. For the ones who do, she loves you dearly...
So we are proud to say Happy Birthday America... God bless ya and hope you have another 214 years of being a country of hard working Americans and fighting Soldiers.
