Jennings Waylon America Lyrics

America Lyrics

Some have said, down through history

 If you last it's a mystery

 But I guess they don't know, what they're talking about

 From the mountains down to the sea

 You've become such a habit with me

 America, Amer-ica 

 

 Well I come from, down around Tennesee

 But the people in California

 Are nice to me, Amer-ica

 It don't matter where I may roam

 Tell you people that it's home sweet home

 America, Amer-ica 

 

 Chorus:

 And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too

 And the red man is right, to expect a little from you

 Promise and then follow through, America 

 

 And the men, who fell on the plains

 And lived, through hardship and pain

 America, Amer-ica

 And the men who could not fight

 In a war that didn't seem right

 You let them come home, America 

 

 And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too

 And the red man is right, to expect a little from you

 Promise and then follow through, America 

 

 Well I come from, down around Tennesee

 But the people in California

 Are nice to me, Amer-ica

 It don't matter where I may roam 

 

 And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too

 And the red man is right, to expect a little from you

 Promise and then follow through, America 

 

 Tell you people that it's home sweet home

 America, Amer-ica

 America, Amer-ica 

 

 And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too

 And the red man is right, to expect a little from you

 Promise and then follow through, America 

 

 It's home sweet home, Amer-ica

 America, Amer-ica
