lyrics
In the morning they wake up like you and I do
Brush their teeth and go to work like you and I do
Call their mom to say hello like you and I do
Rest their head when they are home like you and I do
Who are you to say they haven't earned their right to stay
They are more brave and just and true than any one of you
Charging forward on the front line, how do you Define American
When they were born they cried out like you and I did
Learned to walk and learned to talk like you and I did
But when they tried to learn to drive like you and I did
They were told to run and hide or say goodbye
Who are you to say they haven't earned their right to stay
They are more brave and just and true than any one of you
Charging forward on the front line, how do you Define American
Brush their teeth and go to work like you and I do
Call their mom to say hello like you and I do
Rest their head when they are home like you and I do
Who are you to say they haven't earned their right to stay
They are more brave and just and true than any one of you
Charging forward on the front line, how do you Define American
When they were born they cried out like you and I did
Learned to walk and learned to talk like you and I did
But when they tried to learn to drive like you and I did
They were told to run and hide or say goodbye
Who are you to say they haven't earned their right to stay
They are more brave and just and true than any one of you
Charging forward on the front line, how do you Define American
