Lyrics

THIS IS MY COUNTRY

verse1
A newborn cries An old man dies
A crow stares from a power line
Suns set and rise in my town on my street
Screen doors slam moms and dads
Sit on a front porch holding hands
In yards the flag snaps in the breeze

verse pt2
Here my roots are dug in deep
You can take me out of here but you can?t take here out of me

chorus1
This is my country this is my home
Where possibilities are endless as the road
?Round here we still say our prayers
Drive too fast when there?s nowhere to go
And we believe in living free
This is my country

verse2
Some say there?s a great divide
But I see good on every side
Long as we?re the kind who can agree to disagree
We got outlaws, outsiders
Law makers and law abiders
Them without faith and them who believe

verse pt2
Here my people staked their claim
Headstones hundred years old bear my family name

chorus2
repeat

bridge
Saturday night?s for having fun
Sunday undoes the damage done
Rest of the week up with the sun
Work our fingers to the bone, yeah!

verse pt2
repeat

chorus3
Repeat with ?your country (Hey!) ?

Coda- first half verse 1
