	Lyrics 1st VERSE His name was Johnny Williams, born in 1833 A southern man he worked his land he was both proud and free His nation was divided, inside he felt an urge So he joined the Grey and on that day he found himself at Gettysburg CHORUS Its true my great - great grandpa lost his life that summers day A fight for what he thought was right between the Blue and Grey And everything he fought for in that flag it can be found But that's all lost and all I hear is how, They want to take the Stars and Bars down 2nd VERSE They called him Aaron Thomas, his name he didn't own A slave ship brought his father, his heritage unknown In side he felt the stirrings, a yearning to be free So he joined the Blue and marched into that same place in history 2nd CHORUS Its true his great - great grandpa lost his life that summers day A fight for what he knew was right between the Blue and Grey And everything he fought against in that flag it can be found But that's all lost and all I hear is how, They won't take the Stars and Bars down 3rd VERSE Now both sides have their stories, passed down through out the years Heroic deeds of bravery with sweat and blood and tears And if those great - great grandpas are looking down they'd say We fought and died but can't you see you're still divided today 3rd CHORUS Its true their great - great grandpas lost their life that summers day A fight for what they thought was right between the Blue and Grey A century and more has passed yet we havent come that far I wonder if we'll ever heal the scar Left behind by the Stars and the Bars © 2000 DAVIS/NICOTERI
