E MajorE
Now that it’s all right

To burn the stars and stripes
    A augmentedA              E MajorE
Guess nobody really needs old Uncle Sam
       B7B7
Might as well burn the Bill Of Rights, as well

And let our country go straight to hell
   E MajorE        B7B7       E MajorE
Only me and crippled soldiers give a damn


       A augmentedA
Should they throw away their Purple Hearts

And hide their uniforms
     E MajorE
And be proud to hear Old Glory’s on the ground

Somebody said they’d take us without firing a shot
  A augmentedA             E MajorE
I don’t know if they will or not
              B7B7       E MajorE
But only me and crippled soldiers give a damn


Solo

E MajorE
Has the Holocaust been so long

Is Hitler really gone
    A augmentedA              E MajorE
As we burn our only cause, for Vietnam
      B7B7
There’s the mom who lost a son

Is this the freedom that we won
     E MajorE        B7B7       E MajorE
For only me and crippled soldiers give a damn


      A augmentedA
I’ve been known to wave the flag before

And saddened when we went to war
E MajorE
Fighting for the symbol of our land

For all the wars we fought and won
  A augmentedA        E MajorE
To keep Old Glory waving
           B7B7       E MajorE
Today, they ruled to burn Old Glory down
             B7B7        E MajorE
And only me and crippled soldiers give a damn
