Well She Seemed All Right
By Dawn's Early Light
Though She Looked
A Little Worried And Weak
She Tried To Pretend
He Wasn't Drinking Again
But Daddy Left The Proof On Her Cheek
I Was Only
Eight Years Old That Summer
And I Always
Seemed To Be In The Way
So I Took Myself Down
To The Fair In Town
On Independence Day
Well, Word Gets Around
In A Small, Small Town
They Said He Was A Dangerous Man
But Mama Was Proud
And She Stood Her Ground
She Knew She Was On The Losing End
Some Folks Whispered,
Some Folks Talked
But Everybody Looked The Other Way
And When Time Ran Out,
There Was No One About
On Independence Day..
(Chorus)
Let Freedom Ring..
Let The White Dove Sing..
Let The Whole World Know
That Today.. Is A Day Of Reckoning
Let The Weak Be Strong..
Let The Right Be Wrong
Roll That Stone Away,
Let The Guilty Pay
It's Independence Day
Well, She Lit Up The Sky
That Fourth Of July
By The Time That The Firemen Come
They Just Put Out The Flames
And They Took Down Some Names
And Sent Me To The County Home
Now I Ain't Saying
It's Right Or It's Wrong
But Maybe It's The Only Way
Talk About Your Revolution
It's Independence Day
(Chorus)
Let Freedom Ring..
Let The White Dove Sing..
Let The Whole World Know
That Today.. Is A Day Of Reckoning
Let The Weak Be Strong..
Let The Right Be Wrong
Roll That Stone Away,
Let The Guilty Pay
It's Independence Day
Roll That Stone Away
It's Independence Day
