Lee Greenwood – Great Defenders lyrics

Lee Greenwood, “Great Defenders”
Hot spot brewin’ in a foreign land
We count on you bein’ there
24 hours around the clock
Protecting us everywhere
The more I get around this world
The more I realize
That the greatest force found anywhere
Is right before my eyes.

Oh! Army! Navy! Air Force! Marines! (Huh!)
You’re the greatest show of strength
This world has ever seen
Coast guard! National guard! Along with the reserves
We salute our nation’s best
Standing ready, proud to serve
You’re the great defenders of the U.S.A.
You’re the great defenders, workin’ while we play
Champions of freedom: this song goes out to you
You’re the great defenders of the red, white, and blue!!

There’s pride when you display our colors
Keep your promise true
If someone messes with Old Glory
They have to answer to you
And the more I get around this world,
The more I realize
That the greatest force found anywhere
Is right before my eyes.

Oh! Army! Navy! Air Force! Marines! (Huh!)
You’re the greatest show of strength
This world has ever seen
Coast guard! National guard! Along with the reserves
We salute our nation’s best
Standing ready, proud to serve
You’re the great defenders of the U.S.A.
You’re the great defenders, workin’ while we play
Champions of freedom: this song goes out to you
You’re the great defenders of the red, white, and blue!!

Yeah, yeah, yeahhhhhh!
You’re the great defenders of the U.S.A.
You’re the great defenders of the U.S.A.
