One More Round for the Red, White & Blue

[Verse 1]
Cheap beer
Neon sign buzzin' above our heads
Last call
We’re still raisin’ trouble instead
Pool cue
Leanin’ on a wobblin’ chair
My buddy says
“Hell, pour another if you dare” (come on)
[Chorus]
Here’s to the long weeks, short pay, small towns
To the ones clockin’ in when the sun goes down
Laughin’ too loud, singin’ too out of tune
Spillin’ our hearts by the light of the moon
We’re drinkin’ it up like fools tend to do
One more round for the red, white & blue
[Verse 2]
Bar tab
Lookin’ like a power bill
Old songs
On the box talkin’ ’bout cheap thrills
Two-step
Spinnin’ on a sticky floor
We’re chasin’ 21
Like we ain’t 34 (hey!)
[Chorus]
Here’s to the long weeks, short pay, small towns
To the ones clockin’ in when the sun goes down
Laughin’ too loud, singin’ too out of tune
Spillin’ our hearts by the light of the moon
We’re drinkin’ it up like fools tend to do
One more round for the red, white & blue
[Bridge]
Then the room goes still
When that old flag hits the screen
Name after name
Rolls by in faded green
We take off our hats
Every joking word dies down
Raise our glasses high
For the ones not in this town
[Chorus]
Here’s to the long weeks, short pay, small towns
To the ones who ain’t here when the sun goes down
They gave every night, every bright, young June
So we could sing bad and stay out past noon
We’re livin’ it up ’cause they saw it through
One more round for the red, white & blue (one more round)
Yeah, one more round
For the red, white & blue

country, Mid-tempo modern country bar anthem, big male vocals with crowd-chant harmony hooks. Twangy electric and acoustic guitars over a steady backbeat, warm bass, and jukebox-style piano fills. Verses feel rowdy and loose; chorus explodes into shout-along territory. Final bridge shifts to a humbled, heartfelt lift with strings and organ swelling in, then last chorus brings everyone together, louder and proud.
