Sometimes I wanna light up underneath the no-smoking sign
Sometimes I wish they´d tell me, how justice got so blind
I wish they´d just leave me alone ´cause I´m doing alright
You can take your change on down the road and leave me here with mine
´Cause that ain´t my America
That aint this country´s roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain´t letting you
I´m mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue
That ain´t us
That Ain´t My America
I was standing there in Dallas
Waitin on a plane
I overheard an old man
Tell a young soldier "thanks"
The young soldier hung his head and said "it´s hard to believe
You´re the only one who took the time to say a word to me"
And the old man said...
That ain´t my America
That aint this country´s roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain´t letting you
I´m mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue
That ain´t us
That Ain´t My America
It´s to the women and men who in their hands hold a Bible and a gun
And they ain´t afraid of nothing, when when they´re holding either one
Now there´s kids who can´t pray in school
$100 dollar tanks of gas
I can tell you right now this country ain´t
AIN´T SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT!
NO!
´Cause that ain´t my America
That aint this country´s roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain´t letting you
I´m mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue
That ain´t us
That Ain´t My
That Ain´t My America
That Ain´t My America
That Ain´t My America
Sometimes I wish they´d tell me, how justice got so blind
I wish they´d just leave me alone ´cause I´m doing alright
You can take your change on down the road and leave me here with mine
´Cause that ain´t my America
That aint this country´s roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain´t letting you
I´m mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue
That ain´t us
That Ain´t My America
I was standing there in Dallas
