American Time
Once upon a time
There were days, months and years
Once upon a time
We would plan, dream and we had no fears
Once upon a time
There were moments, evenings and late afternoons
Once upon a time
We heard stories, sang songs and watched Saturday cartoons
Once upon a time
There were decades, generations and changing seasons
Once upon a time
We saved Sunday for church and we all knew the reason
Once upon a time
We stood and pledged with a hand on heart
Once upon a time
We were united together, we all did our part
Once upon a time
We held liberty and freedom, rich in red, white and blue
Once upon a time
The world was a better place and you know my words are true
Once upon a time
We almost lost our freedom land
Once upon a time
Hope, Faith and Courage became our stand
Once upon a time
There were Statesman, Patriots, Heroes and Leaders
Once upon a time
We voted out the haters, pretenders and political cheaters
Once upon a time
Is now, RIGHT NOW, we have so much to save
Vote and STAND UP for Old Glory, long may it wave
Once upon a time
God Bless America
Once upon a time
AMERICAN TIME
