Freedom isn’t free – It takes a sacrifice
The courage to believe – In doing what is right
Protecting all that’s dear – Through the blood, the sweat, the tears
No, freedom isn’t free
Freedom isn’t free – It takes a sacrifice
The willingness to love – And fight for what is right
Protecting all that’s dear – Should be clear to you and me
That freedom isn’t free
From the halls of Montezuma – To the shores of Tripoli
We will fight our Country’s battles – In the quest for liberty
Over hill and dale and sky and sea – Freedom’s price is dear
But greater is the cost – To see our freedom lost
Oh say can you see – By the dawn’s early light
America, America – Is shining bright
And to all those who fought – For the Home of the Brave
We thank you, thank you – For all you gave
Freedom isn’t free – It takes a sacrifice
A daughter or a son – A husband or a wife
A sister or a brother – A father or a mother
No, freedom isn’t free
Freedom isn’t free – It takes a sacrifice
A daughter or a son – A husband or a wife
A sister or a brother – A father or a mother
A neighbor or a stranger – To keep us safe from danger
Protecting all that’s dear – Through the blood, the sweat, the tears
No, freedom isn’t free
Protecting all that’s dear – Through the blood, the sweat, the tears
No, freedom isn’t free
Protecting all that’s dear – Should be clear to you and me
Through the blood, the sweat, the tears – We will fight for liberty
And with faith in God above – We’ll preserve this Land we love
Though freedom isn’t free
Make no mistake about it – You wouldn’t want to live without it But freedom isn’t……….. Free
