Arlo Guthrie.
Wrote the song because he hated God Bless America song.

Significant that she transitioned to that song from God Bless America. The average viewer wouldn’t catch it.

Origninal lyrics ended each stanza with “God blessed America for me” but his publisher made him change it to the version we know.

It was written by Arlo’s father Woody back in the 1930’s
