Randy Newman - Follow the Flag (Land Of Dreams)

You can stand alone
Or with somebody else
Or stand with all of us, together
If you can believe
In something bigger than yourself
You can follow the flag forever

They say it's just a dream
That dreamers dreamed
That it's an empty thing that really has no meaning
They say it's all a lie
But it's not a lie
I'm going to follow the flag 'til I die

Into every life a little rain must fall
But it's not gonna rain forever
You can rise above--you can rise above it all
We will follow the flag together
We will follow the flag together

I listened to Rednecks for years thinking I'd gotten the irony of it. Only recently (10 years ago?) did I catch the irony on top of the irony in that song. Randy is certainly a master of that style.

One of his greatest songs. So economical. So little said. So much left unsaid. So many lovely empty paces. I also love that slight hesitation in the delivery of the notes, something he did previously with 'I Think Its Going To Rain Today'.
