Fare Thee Well Lyrics:

Bye, bye red, white and blue
It was sure nice knowing you
But you poisoned your babies with lead
And in the streets shot your own people dead

Oh well, fare thee well
These are the stories your children will tell
Oh well, fare thee well

Racist, backward old men
Put in power again and again
Cuz’ fools buy their lies
Now it’s time to cut em’ down to size

And all the children sing
Oh well, fare thee well
Pass the whiskey and the shotgun shells
May those who deserve burn in hell
Oh, oh well….

Bye, bye red, white and blue
The whole world’s watchin’ you
Cuz’ you fall from your own hate
This was your freedoms fate

And all the children sing
Oh well, fare thee well
Nothing left for us to show and tell
Well this is how America fell

Oh well, fare thee well…..

Someone of Value Lyrics

Out in the darkness, there lives an old man
who eats raw chicken, with his dirty bare hands
and he says maybe, I made some bad choices
and maybe, it’s just the voices
and maybe, I could be like you, red, white and blue
and wave my flag in your parade,
and wave my flag in your parade…

Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who mattered
Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who matters…

Down on the corner’s, a girl we call Loosy Lou
cuz she’ll do anything, for just a dollar or two
and she says maybe, I made some bad choices
but every night, I hear their voices
and maybe, I could be like you
and not be, black and blue
and wave my flag in your parade,
and wave my flag in your parade…

Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who mattered
Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who matters…

Up on the hill, lives a veteran with no legs
who fought for his country, and now he has to beg
and he says maybe, I made some bad choices
listening to all your voices
and maybe, I could be like you, and not be cut in two
and wave my flag in your parade,
and wave my flag in your parade…

Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who mattered
Then maybe I could be someone of value
Then maybe I could be someone who matters

Cornhole Blues Lyrics

Republicans and democrats, livin’ high on your income tax
and you can’t even buy your baby shoes
Send our kids off to war, what the hell they dying for
Just more entertainment for FOX News

Bend over and open wide, let em’ ram it deep inside
Ain’t ya got the cornhole blues, ain’t ya got the cornhole blues

Entitlements for the government, don’t ask where your money’s spent
cuz there ain’t no pie for you
Corporations got more rights than any citizen black or white
can’t you see that you’ve been used

Bend over and open wide, let em’ ram it deep inside
Ain’t ya got the cornhole blues, ain’t ya got the cornhole blues

You say you want a revolution, gonna let em’ change the constitution
They ain’t workin’ for you. No, no, no, they ain’t workin’ for you

Bend over and open wide, let em’ ram it deep inside
Ain’t ya got the cornhole blues, ain’t ya got the cornhole blues

Run it up the flag pole and cover up your cornhole
cuz you’ve been F’N screwed

Bend over and open wide, let em’ ram it deep inside
Ain’t ya got the cornhole blues?
