Happy Birthday America

(album: Peso In My Pocket - 2021)

Happy birthday America
It's the 4th of July
I get to wake up in your freedom
But sometimes I wonder why

Seems like everybody's pissing
On the red, white and blue
Happy birthday America
Whatever's left of you

You were the darling when you saved the world
WW I and II
France would just be part of Germany now
If it hadn't been for you

Now your children want to turn you in
To something other than yourself
They burn your flag in their city streets
More than anybody else

Happy birthday America
It's the 4th of July
I'll get to wake up in your freedom
But sometimes I wonder why

Seems like everybody's pissing
On the red, white and blue
Happy birthday America
Whatever's left of you

Who they gonna count on
When you're not there to take their call
Will the world keep right on spinning
Without the greatest of them all

Without the helping hand of God
Your days are numbered my old friend
We're sure gonna miss you girl
You were the best that's ever been

Happy birthday America

All the broken-down cities
By the left's design
And the right can't seem to get it right
Most of the time

Every time I go to town and vote
I just come home with the blues
The lesser of two evils
All we ever get to choose

Happy birthday America
It's the 4th of July
I'll get to wake up in your freedom
But sometimes I wonder why

Seems like everybody's pissing
On the red, white and blue
Happy birthday America
Whatever's left of you

Happy birthday America
