I Love This Country

I love this country, it's where I was born.
The United States of America, your'e my home sweet home
and there's no place I rather be, no place I rather see
than this land of liberty.

All around the world people cry and people die for what we have
and it makes me mad, sometimes sad
when someone threatens and attacks what we are
when you know that it's for life, for liberty, and justice that we stand.

Yes, I love this country, our spirit makes it great.                              
Nowhere else in the world will you find another place
where people are from all around,
for freedom sake they chose this ground,
It's a place where hope is found.

You can dream, you can be what you want,
there's still room for you to grow and become what you like,
there's a chance for everyone to succeed if they try,
they will find that there's a place in the sun just for them.

And that's why I love this country, God bless this land.
We've got a voice, we've a choice, our future's in our hands
and I give thanks and appreciate my living in these United States
cause it feels good and it's still great
to be an American, to be an American.
