They're rolling out big plans today
Passin' laws that change what you can say
And at home they're fightin' in the streets
Over politics and the way things used to be
It's not about who's right or wrong
'Cause they'll defend their right to bein' free
I'm not buildin' walls by singin' songs
I'm proud to be an All American singer
Some people talk of tolerance
But they won't tolerate a diff'rent stance
No they're not fine with stayin' blind
To injustices they see every day
When it comes to crime and equal pay
I think it's time we find a better way
I'll stand up for democracy
I'm proud to be an All American singer
I'm gonna get down off the soapbox
Get back behind a guitar and a band
Stop singin' songs that draw hard lines
Set the stage for chaos and divide
I'm not here to say you're wrong
We can come together through a song
And they take pride in takin' sides
Well I'm proud to be an All American singer
I hear talkin' on the radio
War on thought and conspiracy
And some people judge their fellow men
By their party or the colour of their skin
If I see you down the road my friend
It don't matter the race or class you're livin' in
We all find solace in a song
So I'm proud to be an All American singer
I'm gonna get down off the soapbox
And get back behind a guitar and a band
Stop singin' songs that draw hard lines
Set the stage for chaos and divide
I'm not here to say you're wrong
We can come together through a song
And they take pride in takin' sides
Well I'm proud to be an All American singer
Yeah they take pride in takin' sides
Well I'm proud to be an All American singer
