Song for America |
| Virgin land of forest green, dark and stormy plains, here all life abounds |
| Sunlit valley, mountain fields, unseen in the rain, here all life abounds |
| No man rules this land, no human hand has soiled this paradise |
| Waiting patiently, so much to see, so rich in Earth’s delights |
| Painted desert, sequined sky, stars that fill the night, here all life abounds |
| Rivers flowing to the sea, sunshine pure and bright, here all life abounds |
| No man rules this land, no human hand has soiled this paradise |
| Waiting patiently, so much to see, so rich in Earth’s delights |
| So the maiden lies in waiting, for the sails to reach the shore |
| Land of beauty and abundance, innocent, you opened wide your door |
| Wanderers found the waiting treasure, full of gifts beyond their measure |
| Milk and honey for our pleasure… |
| Across the sea there came a multitude, sailing ships upon the wave |
| Filled with visions of Utopia, and the freedom that they crave |
| Ravage, plunder, see no wonder, rape and kill and tear asunder |
| Chop the forest, plow it under… |
| Highways scar the mountainsides, buildings to the sky, people all around |
