I thank a soldier
Thank a marine
Thank the airmen, sailors that Ive never seen
Ensuring the freedoms
We embrace every day
Theyre standing strong for the US of A

Every day I hear reporters -- bringing me the news
They can say and they can write whatever words they choose
And I know why this freedom of speech still survives
Cause the bravest men and women pledge their lives and

I thank a soldier
Thank a marine
Thank the airmen, sailors that Ive never seen
Ensuring the freedoms
We embrace every day
Theyre standing strong for the US of A

I can choose my form of worship, in America Im free
But no member of the clergy provides this guarantee
A fair and speedy trial is my right, and yet I see
That attorneys dont protect this liberty so

I thank a soldier
Thank a marine
Thank the airmen, sailors that Ive never seen
Ensuring the freedoms
We embrace every day
Theyre standing strong for the US of A

We take these rights for granted,
Rarely thinking theres a price
When preserving them requires.. great sacrifice
