If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life
And I had to start all over with just my family by my side
I'd thank my lucky stars to be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away

[Chorus:]

And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the ones who died who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this landGod bless the USA

From the lakes of Minnesota to the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas from sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA
There's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say

[Chorus]

Proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the ones who died who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this landGod bless the USA

God Bless the USA
The USA
