That Ain’t My America

Sometimes I want to light up
Underneath the no smokin' sign
Sometimes I wished they'd tell me
How justice got so blind
I wish they'd just leave me alone
'Cause I'm doing alright
You can take your change on down the road
And leave me here with mine

'Cause that ain't my America
That ain't this country's roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain't lettin' you
I'm mad as hell and you know I still
Bleed red white and blue
That ain't us
That ain't my America
That ain't My America

Yeah, I was standing there in Dallas
Waitin' on a plane
I overheard an old man
Tell a young soldier thanks
Young soldier hung his head and said
It's hard to believe
You're the only one that took the time
To say a word to me

And the old man said...

That ain't my America
That ain't this country's roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain't lettin' you
Yeah, I'm mad as hell and you know I still
Bleed red white and blue
That ain't us
That ain't my America
That ain't My America

It's to the women and men
In their hands they hold a bible and a gun
And they ain't afraid of nothin'
When they're holding either one, oh, uhh
Now there's kids that can't pray in school
Hundred dollar tanks of gas,
I can tell you right now this country ain't
Ain't supposed to be like that

No, that ain't my America
That ain't this country's roots
You wanna slam old Uncle Sam
But I ain't lettin' you
Yeah, I'm mad as hell and you know I still
Bleed red white and blue
They ain't us
And that ain't my...
That ain't my America, oh, no
That ain't my America

no, no, no, no, ohh, ohhh, uhuh,
That ain't my America, oh no....
