Some have said

Down through history

If you last

It's a mystery

But I guess they don't know

What they're talking about

From the mountains down to the sea

Become such a habit with me

America America

Well I come from down around tennessee

But the people in California are nice to me America

It don't matter

How for you don't tell you people

That it's home sweet home America America

And my brothers

Are all black and white yellow too

And the red man is right to expect a little

From you

Promise and then follow through America

All the men who fell down on the plains

And lived through hardship and pain America America

And the men who could not fight

In a war that didn't seem right

You let them come home America

And my brothers are all black and white yellow too

And the red man is right to expect a little

From you

Promise and then follow through America

All the men who fell down on the plains

And lived through hardship and pain America America

And the men who could not fight

In a war that didn't seem right

You let them come home

America

You see the soon American

Let home America

Let home America
