American Pride
Have American pride, don’t grovel
in the earth.
Wave the flag, honor your God,
Do not sneak out of work.
Free money from workers, while you
sit on the sunny sod??
Do fight for all your rights, though
many are erasing them with mirth.
Americans died on foreign lands and
lie dead under seas, to liberate millions
of others.
Cemeteries, foreign and domestic, hold
their respected bodies beneath God’s earth.
Be glad as you can be, to be an American!!
Why else do you think others come here?
They, too want....citizenship and a better life,
if they are willing to work, they can.
