In America

(الألبوم: Slippery When Ill - 1989)

Well the eagle's been flying slow
And the flag's been flying low
And a lot of people saying that America's fixing to fall
If you could take it just for me
And some friends from Tennessee
I got a thing or two to tell you all
This lady may have stumbled
But she ain't never fell
And if the Russians don't believe us
You can all go straight to hell
We're gonna put her feet back on the path
Of righteousness and then
God bless America again

Well I never did think that it ever would happen again (In America, did you?)
I never did think that we'd ever get together again (We damn sure fooled you)
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again (In America)
Well I never did think that we'd ever get together again

From The Sound up in Long Island
Out to San Francisco Bay
And everything that's in between them is our own
And we may have done a little bit
Of fighting amongst ourselves
But you outside people best leave us alone
'Cause we'll all stick together
And you can take that to the bank
That's the cowboys and the punkers
And the rebels and the yanks
You just go and lay your hand
On a helicopter fan
I think then you're gonna finally understand

Well I never did think that it ever would happen again
Well I never did think that we'd ever get together again
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again (In America)
Well I never did think that we'd ever get together again

Well I never did think that it ever would happen again (In America, did you?)
I never did think that we'd ever get together again (We damn sure fooled you)
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again (In America)
Well I never did think that we'd ever get together again
