Jim Boyd - My Heart Drops But I'm Proud lyrics

Well I remember back when

I went to school

Teacher said son don't forget

That golden rule

Were more important things

For me to find out

My heart drops but I'm proud

My dad spent twenty years in a uniform of blue

This Air Force Indian man

Wouldn't tell us what he knew

Now that he's gone there's things I'll

Never know about

My heart drops but I'm proud

Ya my heart drops but I'm proud

Chorus:

I can't forget how they killed

John Kennedy

I can't forget what they did

At Wounded Knee

I've lived in two worlds

Both wanting to be free

Don't try to tell me what

My country means to me

Star Spangled Banner

And the sound of the drum

Tell their own stories under the same sun

I love this country

But I some times have my doubts

My heart drops but I'm proud

Ya my heart drops but I'm proud
