Yeah
Peace
Whoo!
Hey
Hey-hey
Hey
Aristocrats on a mountain climb
Making money, losing time
Communism is just a word
But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Little sister making minimum wage
Living in a one-room jungle, monkey cage
Can't get over, she's almost dead
She may not be in the black
But she happy, she ain't in the red
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Freedom
Love
Joy
Peace
Jimmy Nothing never went to school
They made him pledge allegiance
He said it wasn't cool
Nothing made Jimmy proud
Now, Jimmy lives on a mushroom cloud
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Whoa!
Freedom
Love (whoa)
Joy
Peace
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go boom
Teacher, why won't Jimmy pledge allegiance?
ย
That's enough
Whoo!
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free (drums)
ย
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go boom
ย
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Freedom
Love

Purple mountain majesty
Aristocrats on a mountain climb
Makin' money, losin' time
Communism is just a word
But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard
You gonna stand in my way?
Hey!
Come on, they said, can I sing
Yeah
ย
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The bomb go boom
Boom, boom, boom, boom
And the bomb go (America, America)
Boom, boom, boom, boom (God shed His grace on thee)
And the bomb go (America, America)
Boom, boom (keep the children free)
And the bomb go (America, America)
Boom, boom, boom, boom (God shed His grace on thee)
And the bomb go (America, America)
Boom, boom (keep the children, keep the children)
Boom, boom (keep the children free)
And the bomb go boom
