Song about a blanket my mother made to cover the caskets of our veterans.
[Verse 1]
In a quiet town, where the fields stretch wide,
There's a funeral home where the heroes lie,
Cousin Jeff stands solemn, by the door each day,
With a flag my mama made, to honor and to pray.
Chorus
Red, white, and blue, stitched with mama's care,
Covering the ones who fought, now resting there,
In Jeff's funeral home, where the brave are laid,
A symbol of sacrifice, in the flag she made.
[Verse 2]
Mama's hands were steady, her heart full of pride,
Every stitch a tribute to those who died,
For the soldiers' peace, she wove her love and tears,
Into a flag of freedom, to rest through the years.
[Chorus]
Red, white, and blue, stitched with mama's care,
Covering the ones who fought, now resting there,
In Jeff's funeral home, where the brave are laid,
A symbol of sacrifice, in the flag she made.
[Bridge]
In the silence of the night, when the stars shine bright,
I see mama's flag in the soft moonlight,
It's a comfort to know, their rest is held dear,
By the flag she crafted, through each passing year.
[Chorus]
Red, white, and blue, stitched with mama's care,
Covering the ones who fought, now resting there,
In Jeff's funeral home, where the brave are laid,
A symbol of sacrifice, in the flag she made.
[Melodic Chorus]
Red, white, and blue, stitched with mama's care,
Covering the ones who fought, now resting there,
In Jeff's funeral home, where the brave are laid,
A symbol of sacrifice, in the flag she made.
