If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd hoped for all my life
And I had to start again
With just my family by my sideI'd thank my God above
To be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that awayI'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to meAnd I gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt, I love this land
God Bless the U.S.AFrom the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining seaFrom Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.
There's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and sayProud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to meAnd I gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt, I love this land
God Bless the U.S.AProud to be an AmericanI'm proud to be an American
