Angry American (Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue) live version Lyrics Artist(Band):Toby Keith
Following September 11th last year, everybody that was a poet or writer or a song writer of any kind had a reason to write some words down or some thoughts down on a piece of paper. And I was no different than anybody else, that's what you do when you do what I do. And Uhh My father served in the army in the 50's he lost his eye in a training combat mission. He came home he put up a flag at the farm I was raised on. I lost him six months prior to the attacks on New York City and the United States and Uhh that flag flew out there in that yard and it's flown there every day. He raised me right and he never bitched one time about losing his eye. Never heard him cry about it one time, he was glad to go do it, that's why we're free today and it's our turn to stand on what our fathers and fore fathers did for us and make sure we don't let them down. I wrote a song in the following days after September 11th it's called the "Angry American" and I want to send it out to my father tonight. Sang .... American Girls and American Guys We'll always stand up and salute We'll always recognize When we see Ole Glory Flying There's a lot of men dead So we can sleep in peace at night When we lay down our head My daddy served in the army Where he lost his right eye But he flew a flag out in our yard Till the day that he died He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me To grow up and live happy In the land of the free. Now this nation that I love Has fallen under attack A mighty sucker punch came flying in From somewhere in the back Soon as we could see clearly Through our big black eye Man, we lit up your world Like the 4th of July Hey Uncle Sam Put your name at the top of his list And the Statue of Liberty Started shaking her fist And the eagle will fly And there's gonna be hell When you hear Mother Freedom Start ringing her bell And itll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you Ahhh Brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue Ohhh Justice will be served And the battle will rage This big dog will fight When you rattle his cage And you'll be sorry that you messed with The U.S. of A. 'Cause we'll put a boot in your ass It's the American way Hey Uncle Sam Put your name at the top of his list And the Statue of Liberty Started shaking her fist And the eagle will fly And there's gonna be hell When you hear Mother Freedom Start ringing her bell And itll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you Brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue Uhhh Ohhh Of the Red, White and Blue Ohhh Ohh Oh Of My Red, White and Blue If you find some error in Angry American (Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue) live version Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Angry American (Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue) live version I't obvious... | Reviewer: Atomic | 5/26/09 Government propaganda. Simple as that. The government is willing to do anything it takes to get us to side with its terrible decisions. This song is a prime example. Have a musical artist make a patriotic song, and you get overly-patriotic people. Just look at a large amount of the unintelligent "reviews" with the grammar of a 4-year-old. If you're going to defend your nation, do it right and use grammar. You're making Lady Liberty look like a hick. great song!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/6/09 This is a song worth 5 stars out of 5 and Toby also deserves 5 out of 5. I have listened to many songs by him and he is one great artist and if you do not like him then there is something wrong with you. I am sure all his fans agree. This song is important, and so is this amazing country! | Reviewer: j | 2/12/09 This is the the best frickin country in the frickin world. If u r against this song ur against freedom, justice, and our troops. My family has served in all types of military (army, marines, airforce, navy). This song represents how strong this country is and if u dont like it leave the country u. all righting negative comments seem to hate the country so leave. THANKS TO ALL THE TROOPS SERVING THIS AMAZING COUNTRY!!!!!!! WTF is wrong wit some of you??? | Reviewer: damara | 12/19/08 Wow... firstly SHAGOOL u must have never had someone who has been hurt while in the army, but just to let u in its not funny, these soldiers r fighting 4 u. ANONYMOUS i can't even believe wut u sed!!! U must b some terrorist yourself cuz u obviosly hate americans. Women have better rights (and protection) in America than anywhere else so the beating comment is bullshit. The slaves are freed and have more rights than us now... all immigrants do although they complain still about this country. Their are PEOPLE DIEING FOR THEIR COUNTRY IN IRAQ BCUZ OF THE ATTACK!!! HOW CAN U SAY IT WAS THE GOVERNMENT WHO DID THAT??? BUSH IS A SMART MAN UNLIKE U WHO SEEM TO HAVE ACTUALLY BOUGHT INTO THAT ONE SOUTH PARK EPISODE WHICH WAS MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE, LIKE U, WHO ACTUALLY BELIEVED THAT BUSH DID THE WAR!?!?!?... OBAMA IS A COWARDLY TERRORIST WHO HAS KILLED MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE... WHO HAS BUSH KILLED AND HOW IN HELL CAN U SUGGEST HE IS EVEN ALMOST LEVEL WITH OBAMA?!?!?!?! And yeah... we havent caught Ombama but thats just bcuz hes been hiding... hes COMPLETELY AFRAID OF US!!! we havent caught him but weve stoppd him 4 now!!! You must be joking! | Reviewer: shagool | 12/17/08 This is a song? Those are the stupidest, lamest lyrics ever! How trite! It sounds like a ten year old fat kid wrote it while crying and eating a hot dog! That bit about his dad's bung eye! Is this for real? Who is this hillbilly anyway? Come on | Reviewer: Lt. Pritchett U.S. Navy | 11/15/08 This is ignorance. I went to the Naval Academy. I've seen this war from start to present. You are selfish bastards to say that this song is stupid. What the hell would you do if this war came over here?! We are saving YOUR FREEDOM AND YOUR ASS so quit being ignorant and actually learn what is going on in this country. Does anyone even get the point? | Reviewer: Arick | 8/20/08 Seriously, do any of you people that talk about how horrible this song even get the point. Toby is'nt talking about the war in Iraq. He got pissed off that somebody snuck in and attacked innocent people who only wanted to go to work and make a decent living for their families. This song was written in 2001 which, as most of you morons obiously dont realize, was before America even got involved with Iraq. Toby was simply stating that we, as the most powerful nation on Earth, should fight back against such a cowardly move. Confused American | Reviewer: Brittany | 8/20/08 I can't believe the extent people will go to try to make people see their point. Poeople are going to thing want they want no matter what any one else says. Personally, i love this song. If America wants to stay one of the worlds 'super-powers', then we need to defend our country. No, i don't like the war, i don't like how many people are being killed on a daily basis, but some things need to be done in order to protect our freedom thatb we as Americans live for. Just think of it like this, if you don't like America and you live in it...then move, try out Africa for a while where their starving, or how about China where they make a sport out of horse fighting and they kill there own children as a ritual. please, think about what you say because these soldiers that are dieing in Iraq are dieing for YOU. wow! | Reviewer: emily | 8/8/08 okay i love this song. i wish people would get the int that nobody REALLY likes the war. but we have every right to defend our country. our soilders are doing a wonderful job. God, i would hate to see whoever says this is a god awful song like that one guy did run this country, then we'd all be screwed. this song has a meaning to it. and toby kieth did a great job with the lyrics. :) SSgt Stevens | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/19/08 You people should be ashamed you yourselves.I've seen people that I consider family die in this war.I have lost my brother in this war. The way some of you were talking it was as if you hate this country that I and others have so bravely fought for. You don't even know how stressful it is waking up every day not knowing if your going to die this day,even in base you don't feel safe. I hope you people are happy with your selves and what you've been saying.
