Good Old U.S.A.
Stars and stripes, red, white, and blue,
A land that's strong and free:
My heart is thrilled, and my soul is filled
When I sing of thee.
From the large Atlantic Ocean
To the great Pacific Ocean
The greatest land on Earth,
It's home for you and me.
There are great and mighty mountains,
Rich and fertile valleys.
There are green and hearty forests,
And deserts hot and dry.
There are quiet flowing streams
And rivers raging wild.
There are miles and miles of rolling hills and plains,
And it's all a part of the good old U.S.A.
There are great and mighty cities, and towns both large and small.
There are factories by the thousands,
And farms to feed us all.
There are country roads and city streets and highways everywhere.
