I Believe In America
(Chris LeDoux)
This country's seen some hard times
Lord knows she's deep in debt
She's comin' through another depresion
And for some it ain't over yet
We've all been divided
Playin' our own selfish games
Why's it always take the hard times
To get people back together again.
CHORUS
But I believe in America
I believe in America
One nation underr God still proud and strong
I believe in America
I'm proud to be in America
Though I know in America
We've got to right some worngs
But I don't believe you can keep America down for long.
Now if you read the papers or listen to the news these days
Sometimes it don't look like ther's much hope for the good old U.S.A.
This country, she ain't perfect, aw but thank God she's still free
And she's gonna' make her comeback, yes sir
Just you wait and see.
