Citizenship Lyrics

Citizenship
I care about my country, I care about my world
I care about my freedom, I’ll never be derailed
I know I must defend it, and pledge I always will
I care about my country, I care about my world
To be a good citizen I must know my history
I must know that, men have died to give me liberty
I’ll always believe in freedom, no matter what the cost
I’ll always believe in truth and, I’ll suffer all that’s lost
I care about my country, I care about my world
I care about my freedom, I’ll never be derailed
I know I must defend it, and pledge I always will
I care about my country, I care about my world
To be a good citizen I must do the best I can

I must remember to value every woman child and man
I’ll treat, my neighbor, family and friend
With love, care and, respect till the end
I care about my country, I care about my world
I care about my freedom, I’ll never be derailed
I know I must defend it, and pledge I always will
I care about my country, I care about my world
What, we stand for is truly the best we’ve got
No other philosophy comes close to what we’ve sought
Remember the Bill of Rights and the Constitution too
They were written as the best that humankind can do
I care about my country, I care about my world
I care about my freedom, I’ll never be derailed
I know I must defend it, and pledge I always will
I care about my country, I care about my world
I care about my country, I care about my world
