Well the eagle's been flying slow and the flag's been flying low And a lot of people are saying that America's fixing to fall But speaking just for me and some people from Tennessee We got a thing or two to tell you all This lady may have stumbled but she ain't never fell And if the Russians don't believe that they can all go straight to hell We're gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness And then God bless America again
And you never did think that it ever would happen again In America, did you? You never did think that we'd ever get together again Well we damn sure fooled you We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America You never did think that it ever would happen again
From the sound up in Long Island out to San Francisco Bay And ev'ry thing that's in between them is our home And we may have done a little bit of fighting amongst ourselves But you outside people best leave us alone Cause we'll all stick together and you can take that to the bank That's the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels and the yanks You just go and lay your head on a Pittsburgh Steeler fan And I think you're gonna finally understand
And you never did think that it ever would happen again In America, did you? You never did think that we'd ever get together again Well we damn sure fooled you We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America You never did think that it ever would happen again
