This Ain't No Rag, It's A Flag

Charlie Daniels

INTRO This ain't no rag it's a flag And we don't wear it on our heads. It's a symbol of the land where the good guys live Are you listening to what I said? You're a coward and a fool and you broke all the rules And you wounded our American pride. Now we're coming with a gun and we know you're gonna run But you can't find no place to hide. We're gonna hunt you down like a mad dog hound And make you pay for the lives you stole. We're all through talking and messing around And now it's time to rock and roll. These colours don't run and we're speaking as one When we say United We Stand. If you mess with one, you mess with us all Every boy, girl, woman and man. You've been acting mighty rash and talking that trash, But let me give you some advice: You can crawl back in your hole like a dirty little mole but now it's time to pay the price. You might have shot us in the back, But now you have to face the fact That the big boy's in the game. The lightning's been flashing and the thunder's been crashing And now it's gettin ready to rain! This is the United States of America The land of the brave and free We believe in God, We believe in justice, We believe in Liberty. You've been pulling our chain, We shoulda done something about you a long time ago But now the flag's flying high And the fur's gonna fly So the whole world's gonna know. This ain't no rag it's a flag Old glory red white and blue The stars and stripes and when it comes to a fight We can do what we have to do. Our people stand proud, the American crowd Is faithful and loyal and tough. We're as good as the best and better than the rest You're gonna find out soon enough. When you look up in the sky and you see the eagle fly You'd better know he's headed your way! This ain't no rag it's a flag And it stands for the USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! INSTRUMENTAL When you look up in the sky and you see the eagle fly You'd better know he's headed your way! 'Cause This ain't no rag It's a flag and it stands for the USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! (repeat throughout pledge of allegiance) I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. Respect the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, Indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. *********************************************************************** Strumming style for almost all of song (example is in ) E--------0--0--------0--0--- B--------3--3--------3--3--- G--------1--1--------1--1--- D--------2--2--------2--2--- A--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--- E--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0---
