The America I know is reflected in the following words. Let’s not forget what it is about:
He’s a man who works to pay the rent
She cleans houses her money is already spent
Yet they have the courage to dream
Because in their hearts they were born to be free
He is a painter who works on a Saturday
She stays home with her children because there is no other way
They still have that sparkle in their eyes
Because they have a piece of American pie.
Well our mother is freedom, our father is strength
Wrapped in red white and blue under God we begin
Watch the world as she falls to her knees
we are singing together with pride we are free
AMERICA …….. AMERICA ……. AMERICA
Puts your life on the firing line out of control
She embraces his patience and nurtures the soul
And we sleep at the end of each day
‘Cause our soldiers fight for banners that flutter
It is my children who play on the beach in the sand
Building castles of love just by holding your hand
And angels soar through the sky
Freedom reigns on the wings of heroes who died
Oh say, can you see in the dawn light?
Bombs exploding in the air we survived through the night
Watch the world as she falls to her knees
we are singing together with pride we are free
AMERICA ……………. AMERICA
She is the land of the free and the home of the brave
Stand by her side and guide her through passion and pain.
Watch the world as she falls to her knees
we are singing together with pride we are free
AMERICA …………… AMERICA
