Lyrics
“Still Standing Strong”
Verse 1
Nineteen-nineteen, dust still in the air
Battle-worn boys sayin’ life ain’t fair
They didn’t want fame, didn’t want a throne
Just a place where a vet’s not alone
Built it brick by brick, town by town
When one falls off, another steps down
⸻
Pre-Chorus
From Main Street lights to overseas
They’ve been the voice for the brave and free
⸻
Chorus (Big, Repeat Hook)
Still standin’ strong — one-hundred and seven years
Still dryin’ eyes, still facin’ fears
Still fightin’ for the red, white, blue
Still showin’ up like they always do
From veteran dreams to folded flags
From welcome homes to shoulder taps
Yeah through every right, through every wrong
The American Legion rolls on and on
Still standin’ strong
Still standin’ strong
⸻
Verse 2
They fought for jobs when the war came home
Made sure no hero walks alone
Built ball fields where the young guns play
Teach ‘em freedom ain’t free every day
Gold Star mamas, they hold ‘em tight
Stand that post in the dead of night
⸻
Pre-Chorus
When the world gets heavy, hope feels gone
There’s a porch light burnin’ on
⸻
Hook Chorus (More Punch / Crowd Energy)
Still standin’ strong — one-hundred and seven years
Still dryin’ eyes, still facin’ fears
Still fightin’ for the red, white, blue
Still showin’ up like they always do
Through every war, through every storm
Through every generation born
Yeah the flame burns on, it won’t be gone
The American Legion rolls on and on
Still standin’ strong
(Still standin’ strong)
one-hundred and seven years
⸻
Outro Tag (Chantable / Arena Style)
On and on
Red, white, and blue
On and on
For me and you
Still standin’ strong
