Lyrics

Haha, talking about me leaving America, you got to be crazy
Man, I like all the nice things, Jack
Continental suits and things
Looka here

Now I'm sorry for the man
Who don't love this land
Now black and white, they may fight
But if the enemy come
We'll get together and run 'em out of sight
Now looka here
The sun don't come out in rainy weather
But when you boil it down, they are still together

Now let's not overlook the fact that we're, we're still in reach
You got a chance to make it, and you got a freedom of speech
Say what you wanna, tell them how you feel
There may be a lot of places
A lot of places that you'd like to go
But believe me, if you get an education
You can blow, you can hardly blow, now dig this

Now you tell me if I'm wrong
America is still the best country, and that's without a doubt

America's still the best country without a doubt
And if anybody says it ain't
You just try to put 'em out
They ain't going nowhere, you got a good fight

When I told you one time that I was a shoeshine boy
Every word I said, I meant
But name me any other country
You can start as a shoeshine boy
And shake hands with the president
It ain't gonna happen, you got to have that royal blood to make it
And I ain't got nothing royal but me, soul
I can't take the chances, I'm gonna stay home
Now looka here, I got a brand new jet
When I need to move, haha

A soul brother made it, now ain't that a groove, haha

So looka here, brothers and sisters and friends, dig this
So quit your dreaming all night
Stop beating yourself, and get up and fight
Don't give out, you might give up
But just don't give out, I know if you give out
Don't give up, just don't quit going
I mean like keep it moving, you know
'Cause if you stop, like the ball quit rolling

Now we got tours that carry us from Florida to Rome

But you know, it's one thing we'll never forget
America is still our home, hit it, band

God bless America
I was talking about me too, you know, I'm American myself
I like that kind of thing
Looka here
