Lyrics
Fear roads in old time movies wide
Freedom shining in the travelers' eyes
But the wind whispered low, Boy, that's not your ride
I'll stay where my own story lies
America! America! I will never stand on your land
Your prairies call me like a dream so grand
America! America! my ticket's lost to the sand
But in my heart, you're a song, not just dust in my hand
Your sunsets burn like arrows in the sky
Echoes dancing through your canyon walls
But I find my fire where my old porch lies
Where my guitar sings my favorite calls
America! America! I will never stand on your land
Your prairies call me like a dream so grand
America! America! my ticket's lost to the sand
But in my heart, you're a song, not just dust in my hand
Maybe in some life I will ride your plains
Maybe in some dream I will sail your rain
But tonight, I stay where my fire's still warm
Walking my path through the quiet storm
America! America! I will never stand on your land
Your prairies call me like a dream so grand
America! America! my ticket's lost to the sand
But in my heart, you're a song, not just dust in my hand
America! America! I will never stand on your land
America, America
America, I will never stand on your land
America, America
