Wolfe Tones - Thank God for America lyrics
They left the old world for the new And sailed across the sea Driven from their homeland To a land of liberty Driven by the tyrant's hand From Erin's Isle so green They crossed the western ocean To find life's elusive dreams Into the bowels of the cities and the towns There the Irish made their way Across the new horizons Far away from the bitter sea They left their homes in Ireland No more of the land to see And made their way all over the land And found a home all over the land All over the land Colorado, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California, North Dakota, South Dakota, Michigan, Oregon, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin, Maine All over, all over Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Indiana, Alaska, Utah, Iowa, Ottawa, Omaha, Idaho, New Mexico All over, all over Minnesota, Arizona, Carolina North and South, Nevada, Nebraska, Mississippi, and Missouri All over, all over Come on everybody, thank God for America CHORUS: Thank God for America For your country and your fertile shores Thank God for America For we love this land forever more Each city, each county, all the wonders that we see We're all part of America It's a land that's part of you and me Thank God for America They left the old world for the new And sailed across the sea Driven from their homeland To a land of liberty Driven by the tyrant's hand From Erin's Isle so green They crossed the western ocean To find life's elusive dream Over the hills and the valleys and the plains The Irish brought the railways there Blazing the trails of America Far away from the bitter sea From the gold mines to the coal mines Up and down the cattle trails They made their way all over the land And found a home all over the land All over the land Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Nova Scotia, Tennessee, and Kentucky All over, all over Buffalo to Boston, Washington, Wyoming, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Delaware, Don't forget Connecticut All over, all over Colorado and Chicago, Ohio, Illinois, Maryland, Newfoundland, Barrow, and Rhode Island All over, all over (REPEAT CHORUS) |
