Reporters on TV show protesters in the street
Someone burns a flag to show just how they feel
I just can't believe my eyes, they spit on the stars and stripes
How could anyone feel that way for real
And if no one's taken time to tell you lately
Here is a message that you should be hearing daily
Thank you all the troops in tan and green
Navy, Air Force and Marines
Thank you for doing what you do
For the red white and blue
Thank you every time you take up on
Is to keep us safe from harms
And to keep this country free
Thank you
War is not the answer, reads a big sign in the yard
Of some takers of this free life that we're living
Now we all have a choice, right to raise our voice
What about those brave hearts, are they given
And if no one's taken time to tell them lately
Here is a message that they should be hearing daily
Thank you, Green Berets, Navy Seals
And all you soldiers in the field
Thank you, Coast Guard and Reserve
You don't get what you deserve
Thank you, every time you take up on
Is to keep us safe from harms
Or to help somebody get free
Thank you

Ray Stevens, pseudonimo di Harold Ray Ragsdale (nacque il 24 gennaio 1939 a Atlanta, Georgia), è un cantante, compositore, attore comico e produttore discografico americano. Stevens ha raggiunto la fama negli anni '60 con canzoni country-pop come "Gitarzan" e "The Streak", quest'ultima diventata un successo internazionale nel 1974. Il suo stile musicale combina elementi di country, gospel e bluegrass, spesso con un tocco comico e satirico. Oltre alla musica, Stevens è noto per le sue performance teatrali e televisive, in cui interpreta personaggi divertenti e situazioni esilaranti. Ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Award per la migliore interpretazione vocale country nel 1975 per "The Streak". Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "Everything's Gonna Be Alright" (1968) e "A Ray Stevens Christmas" (1972).
