In America, you get food to eat
Won't have to run through the jungle
And scuff up your feet
You just sing about Jesus
And drink wine all day
Ain't it great to be in America
ย
Ain't no lion or tiger
Ain't no mama snake
Just a sweet watermelon
And a buckwheat cake
Everybody is as happy as they can be
Climb aboard, little one
Sail away with me
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
ย
In America, every man is free
To take care of his home and his family
You'll be as happy as a monkey
In a monkey tree, yeah
Climb aboard, little one
Sail away with me
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
ย
Big ship sailing
Slaves all chained and bound
Heading for a brand new land
That some cat said he up and found
Lord, have mercy
What you gonna do
About the people who are praying to you
They got men making laws that destroy other men
They make money, God
It's a doggone sin
Oh, you gotta help us find a way
Freedom for the stallion
Freedom for the mare and her colt
Freedom for the baby child
That's not grown old enough to vote
Lord, have mercy
What you gonna do
About the people who are praying to you
They got men making laws that destroy other men
They make money, God
It's a doggone sin
Oh, you gotta help us find a way
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean
Into Charleston Bay
Freedom for the stallion
