American Boy..a Song From the Heart
When Uncle Sam called me, I answered right away,
went up and joined the army, then drilled both night and day.
I gave my life for freedom and I meant just what I said,
many men before me fell, and for their country bled.
REFRAIN: I gave all for my country,I have one arm and leg,
But you're not going to see me out on a street to beg.
I'm too proud to take a handout, and too strong to just give in,
I'm a red blooded American boy, and I'm starting over again.
My father served his country well, way back in forty-two,
good men died to turn the tide, for folks like me and you.
They gave me some medals, then called me a hero, too,
but men who died were real heroes, for all that they did do.
REFRAIN: I gave all for my country,I have one arm and leg,
but you're not going to see me out on the street to beg.
I'm too proud to take a handout, too strong to just give in,
I'm a red blooded American boy, and I'm starting over again.
There's one thing you can count on, that's made this country great,
It's the courage of its people, and it's America's God given trait.
We right the wrongs, put down our foes, helping all those in need,
Around the world the people know, against all evil we will lead.
REFRAIN: I gave all for my country, I have one arm and leg,
but you're not going to see me out on the street to beg.
I'm too proud to take a handout, and too strong to just give in,
I'm a red blooded American boy, and I'm starting over again.
I'm a red blooded American boy, and I'm starting over again.
