If tomorrow all the things were gone
I hoped for all my life
And I had to start again
just my family by my side
I thank my God above
to be living here today
Cause the flags still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away (e)

CHORUS:
I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I am free
And I won't forget the man who died
and gave that right to me
And I'll gladly stand up next to you
and defend ourselves today
Cause there ain't no doubt of this land [lamb ?]
God Bless The USA

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee
Across the planes of Texas
from sea to shinning sea (e)
From detroit down to Houston
and New York to LA
It's part of every American heart
It's time to stand and say (e)
