  Well, she seemed all right 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

  R1:
  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 that fourth of July 

  By the time that the firemen come 

  They just put out the flames and took down some names 

  And send 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
