mavis staples & levon helm – this is my country كلمات اغاني
[intro]
doo_doo_doo
doo_doo_doo
[verse 1]
some people think we don’t have the right
to say it’s my country (my country)
before they give in, they’d rather fuss and fight
than say it’s my country (my country)
i’ve paid three hundred years or more
of slave_driving, sweat, and welts on my back
this is my country (my country)
[refrain]
doo_doo_doo
doo_doo_doo
[verse 2]
too many have died in protecting my pride
for me to go second class (this is my country)
we survived the hard blows and i want you to know
that you must face us at last (this is my country)
i know you will give consideration
shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation
this is my country (my country)
[refrain]
doo_doo_doo
doo_doo_doo
[bridge]
and i know you will give consideration
shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation
this is my country, yes, it is
but i don’t feel too proud right now, y’all
we need to get our house in order
i’m seeing far too many children with no shoes on their feet
and way too many babies ain’t got enough food to eat
and what’s up with these people disrespecting our president?
spending all their time, huh_huh, saying he’s not a legal resident
you got some folk throwing a party, but n0body invited me
they’re mixing up the kool_aid, y’all, passing it off as tea
i hear a lot of people saying they wanna take their country back, ha ha
where? back to the ’50s and ’60s? that don’t sound like progress to me
(give consolation)
and i know you will give consideration, as a nation
this is my country (my country)
[outro]
doo_doo_doo
this is my country, oh yeah
doo_doo_doo
my country, y’all, my country, yes, it is
doo_doo_doo
oh yeah
doo_doo_doo
this is my country, uh_huh, uh_huh
and don’t get in my way
yeah
