• The Ballad of the Green Berets – Ssgt. Barry.
• All Along the Watchtower – Jimi Hendrix
Both of these songs show their patriotism through lyrics.
For example, in the Ballad of the Green Berets, the entire song is about what soldiers have to do to get the enemy throughout the war.
Also, in All Along the Watchtower, the lyrics talk about the harsh conditions soldiers can be in as well with,
“Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl.”
