Country music legend Lee Greenwood and his wife Kimberly hang out with Sean Hannity to share the incredible 40-year legacy of "God Bless the U.S.A." ahead of America 250! Discover the untold stories behind the ultimate patriotic anthem, their time entertaining troops on USO tours, and why modern Hollywood has walked away from traditional American values.
In this exclusive episode of Hang Out with Sean Hannity, iconic singer-songwriter Lee Greenwood and former Miss Tennessee Kimberly Greenwood open up about their lives dedicated to faith, marriage, and patriotism. From a chance meeting on a USO tour under Bob Hope to performing for five U.S. presidents simultaneously at the Reagan Library, the couple shares a lifetime of memories honoring our wounded veterans through Helping a Hero.
Lee also walks us through the exact night in 1983 when he pinned down the lyrics to "God Bless the U.S.A." on his tour bus, how a wild Halloween encounter in L.A. with music executive Irving Azoff launched the track, and what it truly feels like to see his anthem echo across the nation as Donald J. Trump's signature walk-out song.
