If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd 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


And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free

And I won't forget the men who die
Who gave that right to me


And I 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


From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.

Well there's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say


That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died

Who gave that right to me

And I 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


And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free

And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me


And I 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
