about

this is a demo of a song from the album highway of life johnnicholson.bandcamp.com?fbclid=IwAR3jb9C9fLtMwpgnXt55Le_UBe_xdXSM_TkQ44jznXHcHaqOeSblZHV41swn

lyrics

They say it like its a really good thing
I guess its like you’ve won
But from where i stand and what I’ve seen
Its Not much when all is said and done

The cost is great the price too high
The gains only so short term
And we never ever ever seem to
See the problems and then learn

Not sure i want to pay the price
Of of those poor souls dying
Just to be able to say out loud
Im The one with the last flag flying

Be better to get out a board and dice
And settle our differences that way
At least our youth and future
Would live another day

Not to fight on some foreign shore
And not know the wherefore or why
Never to see their home again
Theres so many ways to die

Not sure i want to pay the price
Of of those poor souls dying
Just to be able to say out loud
Im The one with the last flag flying

Im proud of my home and my flag
But im tired of parents crying
Just so some self proclaimed patriot
Says “we have the last flag flying”.
