This was the USA
Where we was free
This is the USA
They come from everywhere to stay
You are Free to be a moron
Free to be real smart
Free to die trying while making your art
Free to look for answers
Free to ask around
Free to meet somebody
Free to settle down
Free to go in business and work real hard
Free to make decisions ‘bout your own backyard
Free to go on out- when its after dark
Free to be a clown hanging out in a park
Free to make something of yourself
Make your mark
This is the USA
They come from everywhere to stay
This was the USA
WHERE WE WAS FREE
