When Martina McBrides Independence Day was released to country radio in April 1994, it was easy to mistake the country song for a U-S-A U-S-A anthem. Contemporary country singer Martina McBride rose to stardom in the late '90s, starting out with a more traditionalist approach and later moving into territory. She was born Martina Mariea Schiff in Medicine Lodge, KS, in 1966 and discovered country music through her father, who led a local band called the Schifters. By her teen years, she was singing and playing keyboards with the Schifters, and after high school she gigged around Kansas with several different bands. She issued a Christmas album in late 1998 and returned with a proper follow-up, Emotion, in 1999. Martina McBride Lyrics. Independence Day. Well she seemed all right by dawns early light Though she looked a little worried and weak She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again But daddy left the proof on her cheek And I was only eight years old that summer And I always seemed to be in the way So I took myself down to the fair in town On. Well word gets around in a small, small town They said he was a dangerous man But mama was proud and she stood her ground She knew she was on the losin' end Some folks whispered and some folks talked But everybod. by Martina McBride.

Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July By the time that the firemen come They just put out the flames and they took down some names And sent me to the county home. Now I ain't saying it's right or it's wrong But maybe it's the only way Talk about your revolution It's Independence Day. D D D D Em Em Em E.
