LyricMeaning

Indpendence Day
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


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 a 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 that 4th of July

By the time the fireman come

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 Independence Day


Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing

Let the whole world know

That today is a day of a reckoning


Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong

Roll the stone away, let the guilty pay

On Independence Day, roll the stone away

It's Independence day
