I Am Looking For America

I am looking for America I am looking for the america that fought to develop into a nation. I am looking for america that fought indians o get land to be a nation. I am looking for america that fought to give the blacks their freedom. Where has this america gone? I am looking for america that won two world wars. I am only looking for america that put a man in space. I am looking for america where people stood on the street on the 4th of July And saw the flag go by. And they put their hand on their heart. Where has this America gone? I am just looking for America where you dine with your neighbor. I am just looking for America where children played games in the street with no fear. I am only looking for america.Where you say hello to any person and they say it back. Where has this america gone Over 200 years living together we Should live as America I am only looking for that America!!
