Proud To Be An American

	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.

	I'm proud to be an American
	where at least I know I'm free,
	And, I won't forget the ones who died
	who gave that right to me.
	And I'll gladly stand up
	next to you
	and defend her still today.
	Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land...
	God Bless the U.S.A.!

	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.,
	There's pride in every American heart
	and it's time we stand and say:

	I'm proud to be an American
	where at least I know I'm free,
	And, I won't forget the ones who died
	who gave that right to me.
	And, I'll gladly stand up
	next to you
	and defend her still today.
	'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land...
	God Bless the U.S.A!!
