god bless the usa!

Obviously the music blog I posted last night was a joke. But this one is very serious. As a diverse nation, we disagree on many things. But one thing we can all agree on is that we're proud to be American!

If tomorrow all the things were gone
I’d worked for all my life
And I had to start again
With just my children and my wife

I'd thank my lucky stars
To be livin' here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can’t take that away!

And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I wont forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me

And I'll gladly stand up
Next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA!

From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea

From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say:

That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I wont forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me

And I'll gladly stand up
Next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA!
