AMERICA Written by Neil Diamond
Far We've been traveling far Without a home But not without a star
|
|
Free Only want to be free We huddle close Hang on to a dream
|
|
On the boats and on the planes They're coming to America Never looking back again They're coming to America
|
|
Home, don't it seem so far away Oh, we're traveling light today In the eye of the storm In the eye of the storm
|
|
Home, to a new and a shiny place Make our bed, and we'll say our grace Freedom's light burning warm Freedom's light burning warm
|
|
Everywhere around the world They're coming to America Every time that flag's unfurled They're coming to America
|
|
Got a dream to take them there They're coming to America Got a dream they've come to share They're coming to America
|
|
They're coming to America They're coming to America They're coming to America They're coming to America Today, today, today, today, today
My country 'tis of thee Today Sweet land of liberty Today Of thee I sing Today Of thee I sing Today
