America, the beautiful... do you see what I see? A country stuck on life support A dead economy? America, America... .please take a breath for me Ford, GM and Chrysler Are no longer the big three Our plants are closed Our dollar ***** the Dow Jones is joke Our people can't afford to live Our dreams went up in smoke America, America You'll come back once again But now you're flat upon your back On an eight count out of ten Your soldiers fight, For what is right On shores so far away There's battles that need fighting though Inside the USA America, America Please get up off your knees Most of what we buy from you Is made by the chinese Your country has come back before We're sure that you'll be fine Recovery won't happen fast Your eight count's up to nine America, America Before they count you out Stand up and yell without a doubt We'll triumph once again. We'd love to hear Kate Smith once more Sing out about how great America can be agian, Before it is too late America, America God Shed his Grace on Thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From Sea to Shining Sea.
