American

Wheres your honor, wheres my pride?
Even when it's hard to find
From seed to harvest, it's been engrained
Drive me past the fields of corn
As Johnny Cash blasts in your Ford
Just get me home to catch the big game

Cuz I was born an American
On the same dark soil
Through the years & all the changes
Still theres no place like home

I will die an American

It's fireflies & times of war
I think back to a time before
Of catching fireflies in my hands

Then it seems I grew up in a flash
A copper penny flying off a track
Free to fall in love with any man

Cuz I was born an American
On the same dark soil
Through the years & all the changes
Still theres no place like home

I was born an American
& tho I've growin' old
Through the years & all the changes
Still theres no place like home

& I will die an American
