She dresses up her children

and she herds 'em to the car

Drives down to the mega church
but can't find a place to park

Then she feels a little guilty when

she takes His name in vain

So she folds her last two dollars

and she drops 'em in the plate
It's Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

His back is out of kilter from

sleeping on concrete

And he'd like to have some breakfast
but he'd trade it for a drink
Those early morning joggers,

they're quick to pass him by

And the ones who drop a dollar,
don't dare look him in the eye
Another Sunday morning,

Sunday morning in America

Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a big screen TV
There's Winnebago's and boats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake
It's Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

He's hunkered in a bunker

with a rifle in his hand

Layin' his life on the line, every inch of sand

But he's dreaming about that freedom

that he's been fighting for

And the arms that will wrap around him
When he comes walking through that door
Some Sunday morning,

it's Sunday morning in America

Yeah, Sunday morning,

Sunday morning in America

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a big screen TV

There's Winnebago's and boats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake
Yeah, Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Well, I know it ain't perfect
Ya, there's a lot of things wrong in America

But I thank God for those who lay down their lives

To make this place my home

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a 57

inch big screen TV

There's trucks on a highway and
sailboats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake

It's Sunday morning, yeah,
Sunday morning in America

It's Sunday morning, beautiful
Sunday morning in America

Oh, Sunday morning, Sunday morning

in America, in America
