This one is runnin, turn a darker shade of GREYYYY
What, will, I, have, left (tell me tell me)

When, this, hard, rain's, gone awayyy
There is a safe place, that I used to KNOWWW-hohhhh
It's the only place, that I want to GOOOOOOO
Where, else, could, I (tell me tell me)
(Somebody tell me now)

Grandma, grandpa, mother, father
Sister, brother, Lord

But y'all can't see me wavin the flag
Somebody please wave the flag

What, will, I, have, left (tell me tell me)
(Somebody tell me now)
When, this, hard, rain's, gone awayyy
Today is, not like, any other DAYYYYYYY

Tell the boat over here man we wavin the flag

Tell the chopper over here man we wavin the flag
Man I'm wavin the flag
Tell the boat over here man we wavin the flag, wavin the flag, wavin the flag
