My Country

Each blade of grass And every stretch of rode Everywhere you set foot
Is America The home in which you build Whether on mountain or ocean Whether Hall or hut
Is America Each Olympic game you see Every election you vote in
Every NASCAR race you watch
Is America Each of mom’s apple pies
Each BK burger Every spot of property you claim
Is America ... Every bus stop
Every truck stop Every tollbooth
Is America Every slack jawed hick
Every movie hunk Every Paris Hilton
Is America Every kegger party
Every hangover morning Every stupid thing on TV
Is America Black and Asian,
Hispanic and white Every color and creed
Is America Celebrate
That you live in
America
