Red, Yellow, And Blue lyrics

If I started my own country
For the flag, what colours would I use?
Such a myriad to choose from
I would pick red, yellow & blue
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/born_ruffians/red_yellow_and_blue.html ]
Red, for the blood I'd spill to own it
Yellow, for the sun which shines my way
& although I am leader of this country
Blue, because I'd still have sad days
