Only In America

On the banks of the Mississippi They build ships too big to fail In the banks in New York City They invent new ways to steal your money and run Set the poor against the poor Send healthy young men to war and never look back I don’t pine for the days of old Segregation and our women can’t vote Said a Hallelujah for the ways we’ve grown We still got a long way to go Hey hey hey Only in America Hey, fields of gold Only in America Hey, blue mountains roll Only in America Hey, we feel at home Only in America On the streets where Kings have marched In history’s long and lonely arc We hide our problems in the dark Until them bullets fly and strike our heroes down Well I don’t pine for the days of old Segregation and our women can’t vote Said a Hallelujah for the ways we’ve grown We still got a long way to go Hey hey hey Only in America Hey, fields of gold Only in America Hey, blue mountains roll Only in America Hey, we feel at home Only in America Conman in the highest office in the land Goddamn Says make America great again I know I thought we were trying to be the best we ever been I kneel I stand for what I believe in Can you believe?
