  • I knew a man called him Sandy Kane
    Few folks even knew his name
    But a hero was he
    Left a boy, came back a man
    Still many just don't understand
    About the reasons we are free

    I can't forget the look in his eyes
    Or the tears he cries
    As he said these words to me

    All gave some and some gave all
    And some stood through for the red, white and blue
    And some had to fall
    And if you ever think of me
    Think of all your liberties and recall
    Some gave all

    Now Sandy Kane is no longer here
    But his words are oh so clear
    As they echo through out our land
    For all his friends who gave us all
    Who stood the ground and took the fall
    To help their fellow man

    Love your country and live with pride
    And don't forget those who died America can't you see

    All gave some and some gave all
    And some stood through for the red, white and blue
    And some had to fall
    And if you ever think of me
    Think of all your liberties and recall
    Some gave all

    And if you ever think of me
    Think of all your liberties and recall, yes recall
    Some gave all

    Some gave all Writer/s: Billy Ray Cyrus, Cindy Cyrus
