Well, we got trouble in the White House
Poverty in the ghetto
When will it end?
Nobody knows!
People are asking now
How
can
you
spend
another
dollar
on
the
space
race
When
families
at
home
are
starving
right
in
front
of
your
face.
Where is your heart, America?
Thousand of jobless people walking the streets
With no food or place to sleep
What will become of them, America?
I heard some people saying they had a solution,
All
we
got
to
do
is
change
the
constitution!
What about air pollution, America?
America!
Don't get me wrong, I still love ya,
In spite of all your troubles and woes
In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all!
America!
I ain't ashamed to say that I love ya
There ain't another place on Earth I'd rather be.
We won all the battles there were to win
Pray that the war is at an end
That's what people pray
Listen to them, America!
America!
Don't get me wrong, I still love ya,
In spite of all your troubles and woes,
In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all!
America!
I ain't ashamed to say that I love ya,
There ain't another place on Earth I'd rather be.
