I'm the river, I'm the rain
The lonesome whistle of a train. I'm the amber waves grain
I'm the highway, I'm the farm
The fertile fields and boulevards. The hand that rests over your heart
Oh, Oh, Oh
I'm the echo of the bell that's ringing
Oh, Oh, Oh
I'm the freedom in the song we're singing
I'm the seed that's in the dust
I'm the prayer in god we trust
The place to dream for all of us
I'm America
I'm the music to the dance
The open window to a chance
The place where courage takes a stance
All the colors that you see
The lights from thirty-thousand feet
Yeah I'm the roar of victory!
I'm the fathers, I'm the sons.
I'm the footprints in the mud.
I'm a shelter washed in blood
