Independence Day

Well she seemed all right by dawns early light

Though she looked a little worried and weak

She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again

But daddy left the proof on her cheek

So I took myself down to the fair in town

They said he was a dangerous man

But mama was proud and she stood her ground

She knew she was on the losin' end

Some folks whispered and some folks talked

But everybody looked the other way
但各人顧左右而言它
And when time ran out there was no one about

Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
讓自由鍾鳴白鴿歡歌
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning

and took down some names

And sent me to the county home

But maybe it's the only way
