Everyone barbeque's, spends time with their friends and families and lights fireworks off. It is truly a great way to celebrate our independence. But, I think that when the fireworks are over it is time to go to bed especially if the fourth of July falls on a weekday.

That classic was sung by Colonial American soldiers as early as The French and Indian War.

Since then, our country has established one of the richest musical traditions in the world. Many songs even deal with America itself, from ‘God Bless America’ to ‘God Bless the USA.’

Here’s a list of 10 to add to your Fourth of July playlist.
