lyrics

MY AMERICA
Jason Hetland / Danny Myrick

My America is sandy blonde hair and green eyes
Three little girls that are all mine
Taught to do right by their last name
 
My America
Picks somebody up when they fall
Knows every damn name on that wall
Who they left behind
Who laid it all on the line for—
 
My America
It’s the kinda place that we all love
We don’t see color
When we all bleed red and the white and blue
That’s why I fought for you and
My America
We try to make room for every one of us
We all get a shot
If we wanna work hard in the home of the Stars and Stripes
It’s a helluva life
My America
 
My America
Is a room full of gold star families
Giving them everything they ever need
Hell, they ain’t even gotta ask
 
In my America
We can come together and feel free
To agree even if it’s just to disagree respectfully
That’s how I wanna be in—
 
My America
It’s the kinda place that we all love
We don’t see color
When we all bleed red and the white and blue
That’s why I fought for you and
My America
We try to make room for every one of us
We all get a shot
If we wanna work hard in the home of the Stars and Stripes
It’s a helluva life
My America
 
Bowing your head don’t seem like a lot to ask
Man, remove your hat
And think about the ones
The daughters and the sons who never made it back
Every time they wave that flag
In my America
 
My America
We try to make room for every one of us
We all get a shot
If we wanna work hard in the home of the Stars and Stripes
It’s a helluva life
In my America

Yeah, that’s my America
