Well, the eagle's been flyin' slow
And the flag's been flyin' low
And a lot of people sayin' that America's fixin' to fall;
Well, speakin' just for me
And some people from Tennessee,
We've got a thing or two to tell you all.
This lady may have stumbled
But she ain't never fell,
And if the Russians don't believe that
They can all go straight to hell.
We're gonna put her feet back
On the path of righteousness and then
God bless America again
Chorus
And you never did think
That it ever would happen again ... In America;
You never did think
That we'd ever get together again
(Well, we dam* sure could ...)
Yeah, we're walkin' real proud
And we're talkin' real loud again ... In America;
You never did think
That it ever would happen again.
From The Sound up in Long Island
Out to San Francisco Bay,
And everthing that's in between them is our own;
And we may have done a little bit
Of fightin' amongst ourselves,
But you outside people best leave us alone.
'Cause we'll all stick together,
And you can take that to the bank,
That's the cowboys and the hippies
And the Rebels and the Yanks;
You just go and lay your hand
On a Pittsburgh Steelers' fan,
And I think you're gonna finally understand.
And you never did think
That it ever would happen again ... In America;
You never did think
That we'd ever get together again
(Well, we dam* sure could ...)
Yeah, we're walkng real proud
And we're talkin' real loud again ... In America;
You never did think
That it ever would happen again.
My own message to them:
Playing the role of an intelligent person does not mean that you yourself are one.
