My country's tall My country is wide My country's gold And the crops that grow high Where the wild flowers bloom And the rivers run wild My country's tall My country is wide Oh I've seen red tails fly up to the mount Skys so big can't figure it out Deserts so red and the canyons so deep Water so clear And the valleys so green I've seen migrant workers Up from Mexico way They're picking down oranges a few dollars a day Send back to their children So they may survive Hoping someday for American lives Cause my country's rich My country is strong Driving fine cars Up to tract homes Were tearing down buildings And taken back loans My country is rich My country is strong I've heard the fireworks On the Fourth of July Well I've seen little bighorn Of the Indian's right Forced on reservations And stripped of their ways They'll try to fight back And we lock them away Cause we wave the red And the white and the blue But theirs people so troubled They hardly get through If your family is starving And you couldn't feed one Would you reconsider my friends What had to be done Well temperature is rising So the scientists say That hole's getting bigger With each passing day And mad mother nature And a damaging winds And a raging flood waters Till the levies cave in Still I will defend her Up to my dying breath But when I charge blindly Towards every new threat With false information Like we've done before Leads to dead soldiers And orphans of war Well my biggest fear Is that it will all end Let the missiles start flying And the nukes'll come in With nothing left over No hope to live on And that war is over My country is gone So listen my brothers And my sisters alike Stop fighting your neighbors Stop taking up sides Learn to love one another Before its too late Start working together Our country to save
