Me, Too

by SONiA Disappearfear

on Me, Too (1999)

Her daddy was a soldier in the vietnam war
She was proud to see her father in a fresh pressed uniform he came home on a strecher in 1966
Welcomed by fellow americans throwing tomatoes and sticks
He said darling don't you worry there are two sides to every thing
I did what I believed in and I want you to do the same
I stood up for my country yeah that's a common bet
And I'll stand up for freedom every chance I get...

Cause America shines in front of me and all the world could see if they wanted to
I raise this flag for you... me too

She grew up on the bible she grew up on love she grew up thinking
She could change the world if she only worked hard enough
So she became a lawyer hoped to marry a good looking man
But she fell in love with the girl next door so that wasn't part of the plan

But America shines in front of me and all the world could see if they wanted to
I raise this flag for you... me too

The years spin by while the corn grows high
For every train you catch you miss one
Too much of life just passes by it was time to tell daddy this one

She sat down in the corner she could still see the door
She said I gotta tell you something I've never said before
And he said shhhhhhhh every body has a war
You see it's not about oil and it's not about guns
It's not about rainbows it's about daughters and sons
If you believe in tomorrow then I have taught you well
'Cause if you don't believe in yourself
Life's a living hell

And you'll always shine in front of me
And all the world could see if they wanted to
I raise this flag for you me too
I raise this flag for you me too
