If tomorrow all the things were gone I worked for all my life    And I had to start again with just my children and my wife    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    Were at least I know I'm free    And I won't forget the ones who died and gave that right to me    And I'd gladly stand up next to you    And defend her still today    'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land    God Bless the USA       From the lakes of Minnesota    To the hills of Tennessee    Across the plains of Texas    From sea to shining sea    Detroit down to Houston    And New York to L.A.    Where there's pride in every American heart    And it's time we stand and say...       [CHORUS x2]       To the hills of Tennessee   Across the plains of Texas   From sea to shining sea   Detroit down to Houston   And New York the L.A.   Where there's pride in every American heart   And it's time we stand and say...      [CHORUS x2]
