America...The Good Things

We hear a lot about war, or hurricanes that hit our shore
we hear a lot about hard times and a good deal more
about the crimes that make the front pages in our news.
But all that does is sing the blues about America.

Now what are the good things in our lives?
About the men who loves their wives,
who take their kids when they go fishing,
and spend their working days just wishing
to make things better.

A fireman who climbs a tree and sets a little kitten free
A policeman who helps you cross the avenue
A man who stops when you're broken down
and asks if you need a lift to town
Or simply says, "Friend, what can I do?"

Have you stopped at a grocery store
and watched a kid who's bit off more
than his five or ten cent piece can chew
He needs just 2 cents or 3 to get that soda pop he's seeing
You get that feeling? Why not? And you come through

And how about on a Sunday Morning
when the suns up high and the day is borning
And church bells break the stillness in the sky
All your neighbors and friends climb in their family car again
and go to church, and never question why.

Then you look at the USA, the first work, their kids that play
and looking back, you see how hard they've tried
to keep this country free and strong
and somehow, you've know all along
the answers here, right in your own backyard.

For as long as you believe in love and faith...hope...God above
the future of this land of ours is strong
and most of us feel just that way and that's the truth
so let us say...
America can't be so very wrong.
