Harlan Howard - Uncle Sam (i'm A Patriot) lyrics

rate me

Uncle Sam I work hard every day but there ain't much left when I draw my pay

Then I hear you're givin' those millions away to somebody outside the USA

Uncle Sam Uncle Sam Uncle Sam I'm a patriot yes I am

And even though you made me mad as cane if you need me Uncle just call my name

Now the little dirt farmer works all of his life

And leaves eight dollars to his kids and wife

While the big land owner is a millionare he made it by lettin' his land stand bare

Uncle Sam Uncle Sam...

[ guitar ]

I get choked up every time I hear the national anthem loud and clear

And though I've got a complaint or two you can write my name in red white and blue

Uncle Sam Uncle Sam...

Uncle Sam Uncle Sam...

Uncle Sam Uncle Sam...
