1
People think we're nearing the end of time
2
But we've had enough and we've drawn the line
3
Our flag is up since our people went down
4
And we're together from the country to town
5
We live back in the woods you see
6
Big city problems never bothered me
7
But now the world has changed and so have I
8
And America can survive, America will survive!
9
We can plow our fields all day long
10
We can catch our fish from dusk 'til dawn
11
Yeah, we have toughed it out a time or two
12
These are dark days but we're gonna pull through
13
We grow good ol' tomatoes, we got hometown pride
14
America can survive, America is gonna survive
15
'Cause you can't scare us out, you can't make us run
16
What we got here is freedom and fun
17
We say grace and we say "ma'am"
18
If they don't like that, we don't give a damn
19
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
20
The Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines
21
Hey, we can hit back and we're gonna be fine
22
'Cause this ol' country can survive, America can survive
23
I had a good friend in New York City
24
Never called Hank, he called me hillbilly
25
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
26
And his taught him to be a street-smart man
27
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway lights
28
And I'd send him some of that homemade scufflin' wine
29
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife
30
And we're all asking God, now why? Oh why?
31
I read, "A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye"
32
And that's an old slogan we're gonna revive
33
'Cause America can survive, America will survive
34
'Cause you can't scare us out, you can't make us run
35
We're them boys and girls that have freedom and fun
36
We say grace, we say "ma'am"
37
If they don't like that, we give less than a damn
38
We're from North California and South Alabam'
39
And all they've done is unite the whole land
40
There's no more Yankees and Rebels this time
41
But one united people that stand behind
42
America can survive, America will survive
43
America can survive, America is gonna survive
