Is this America?
This is America
My lady soars
This is the country
We're feeling tall
The home of the brave
And the land of the free
The birthplace of
Democracy
Red is the blood
Of American boys
In their hands there's guns
Where there once were toys
They leave behind feelings
Children and wives
They're fighting
And they give their lives
But look around
And tell me too
Is this America
All red, white, and blue?
White is the hanker chief
In mother's hands
Loved ones are crying
There's breakup in distant land
But lands are not all distant
Where American blood is spilled
There's red in Alabama
Where four Negro girls live
And there's red in Mississippi of three young men
Freedom fighters for Americans
Yes American brothers
Not lucky like them
American brothers not for only white skin
This is America
Is this America?
This is America
