Independence Day Lyrics - Country Piano Tribute - Carrie Underwood

Well she seemed alright by dawn's 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 

And I was only eight years old that summer 

And I always seemed to be in the way 

So I took myself down to the fair in town 

On Independence Day 

Well word gets around in a small, small 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, some folks talked 

But everybody looked the other way 

And when time ran out there was no one about 

On Independence Day

Let freedom ring 

Let the white dove sing 

Let the whole world know that today 

is a day of reckoning 

Let the weak be strong 

Let the right be wrong 

Roll the stone away 

Let the guilty pay 

It's Independence Day 

Well she lit up the sky the 4th of July 

by the time the fireman came 

They just put out the flames and took down some names 

And sent me to the county home 

Now I ain't sayin it's right or it's wrong 

But maybe it's the only way 

Talk about your revolution 

It's Indepenedence Day

Let freedom ring 

Let the white dove sing 

Let the whole world know that today 

is a day of reckoning 

let the weak be strong 

Let the right be wrong 

Roll the stone away 

Let the guilty pay
