She's seen me through lots of troubles.
|
She's stayed up nights so I could sleep.
|
She's given me more than comfort.
|
She's given me something I can keep.
|
|
I love her, and I need her,
|
And I want to be with her all the time.
|
I'd fight just to keep her
|
And I'd die if I thought she wasn't mine.
|
|
I love her every morning,
|
Thank God for her every night,
|
I worship the ground she stands on,
|
And I stand on the ground she'll be all right.
|
|
When you need me, you know I'll be there,
|
'Cause you've always been there for me.
|
America, God knows I love you
|
'Cause you¡¯ve been like a mother to me.
|
|
America, we've been through troubles,
|
And we'll make it again. Just wait and see.
|
America, God knows I love you
|
'Cause you¡¯ve been like a mother to me.
|
|
America, stand up and show it,
|
That you're proud of the red, white, and blue.
|
You love her, and you know it
|
'Cause she's been like a mother to you.
|
|
She's been like a mother to you.
|
America!
