Red, White & Blue

[Verse 1] My girl has 3 personas Red white and blue She’s red like a firecracker Goin’ boom, boom, boom Laughin’ loud enough to wake the moon Spark in her eyes Burnin’ wild and free A little bit of trouble Wrapped in liberty She’s red like scraped-up knees Learning not to quit Every scar’s a little story That says, “Keep after it.” [Pre-Chorus] We don’t need forever Just one long July To remind these restless hearts How good it feels to fly [Chorus] She’s red like a firecracker Boom… boom… boom… Blue like the big sky On a summer afternoon Blue like tomorrow Before anybody tells you “no” You can see for miles Watch your daydreams grow White like the smoke After the last boom fades Raise your cup Raise your voice Raise your memories too Here’s to another summer Painted red, white and blue [Verse 2] Barefoot on the back porch Radio turned high Kids are chasing grasshoppers While old flags kiss the sky Grandpa tells the same old stories Nobody minds at all Funny how the simple things Become the biggest of them all Uncle’s guarding the barbecue Claims it’s secret sauce We all smile and let him brag Nobody counts the cost [Bridge] Red is every heartbeat That keeps getting back up Blue is every dream Big enough to fill the sky White is every quiet moment You never knew you’d miss Freedom isn’t only fireworks Sometimes… Freedom sounds… Like this… [Final Chorus] She’s red like a firecracker Boom… boom… boom… Blue like tomorrow Before anybody tells you “no” White like the smoke After the last boom fades Raise your cup Raise your voice Raise your memories too Here’s to another summer Painted… Red… White… And Blue… [Outro] Red fades. Blue turns black. White smoke drifts away. But the people you spent the day with… They’re the colors that stay
