Lyrics
As the glow slowly rises
And the shadows come nigh
As the stars sing the morning
And the dawn stripes the sky
When the night has retreated
And excitement's running high
There's nothing like the morning of the Fourth of July
It's a day to celebrate freedom
And the blessing it is to be free
It's a day when being an American
Is exactly what we all want to be
I remember it from childhood
When we rushed to the park
For sausage and funnel cakes
Until it was dark
Then we'd all sit together
And cheer at the sky
When the fireworks exploded on the fourth of July
Chorus
From the seaport in Boston
To Willie Nelson's big day
There will be music exploding
'Cross the whole USA
No matter disagreements
That day-to-day fly
We all sing together on the Fourth of July
