America, I Believe In You Lyrics - Singles - Charlie Daniels Band

We got some trouble in our own back yard 

Things are kinda tough, times are kinda hard 

Got a lot of people livin' out in the street 

People goin' hungry without nothin' to eat 

And in this land of plenty 

This souldn't be goin' on 

We got enough for everybody we just gonna have to pass it along 

Well, I'm glad about the fall of Communism 

I'm glad about the Berlin wall 

And I like seein' old Saddam bite the dust 

In fact I'm glad about it all 

And I believe in helping everybody 

But when it comes to all them foreign loans 

I think we oughta remember that charity begins at home 

Yes it starts right now in 

(America, America) 

I know the sun is risin' on a better day 

(America, America) 

We got the power and we know the way 

(America, America) 

Well, let me say a few words about the red, white, and blue 

(America, America) 

I know you're gonna do it I believe in you 

Now I been tryin' to figure this out 

But there's somethin' that I just don't know 

How can you make things better when you 

Take our jobs, and send 'um down to Mexico? 

And then there was this big shot 

From the land of the risin' sun 

He said the workin' people in America were lazy and dumb 

Well let me tell you somethin' Jack 

The next time I go on a shopping trip 

And take somethin' off of the rack 

If it don't say, "Made in the U.S.A." 

I'm just gonna put it back 

We can't leave it to the politicians 

'Cause they don't do nothin' but talk 

And it's we the people that are gonna have to walk the walk 

And we can do it right now in 

(America, America) 

Hey, I know the sun is risin' on a better day 

(America, America) 

Yeah, we got the power and we know the way 

(America, America) 

Now let me say a few words about the red, white, and blue 

(America, America) 

I know you're gonna do it I believe in you 

Well, we got the best dang farmers in the whole wide world 

The fastest horses and the prettiest girls 

We got the army, the navy, air force, and marines 

The mightiest fightin' force the world's ever seen 

We the kinda people that can get things done 

We're servin' notice that we're still number one 

We got the nerve 

(We got the nerve) 

We got the will 

(We got the will) 

We are all together 'cause you know that we are still 

(America, America) 

Well, I know the sun is risin', it's a risin' on a better day 

(America, America) 

Hey hey, we got the power and we know the way 

(America, America) 

Now let me say a few words about the red, white, and blue 

(America, America) 

'Cause I believe in you
