My Country Too bpm 129.  By Parris Bowens Sr.

Intro / Talk
Hey, yall. There’s a lot of talk going on about what’s wrong with America.

Verse 1
National diversity, political disparity
And news media in disarray
The demagogue we used to be is falling to banality 
And institutions going astray

With rising gas prices and the cost-of-living dicey
Seems like help is so far away
Yet when I look around, I see good people still abound
Things are not all bad as they say

Vs 2 Trouble in land, Fighting in the streets, it makes us all feel really very sad 
We know we got do something and figure it out ‘fore things go from worse to bad
(But what I want to tell you is) that even in this here mess, there’s a lot of fine neighbors all around
Even in tough neighborhoods I’ve found, still love abounds.

Chorus 1
Say what you wanna say, think what you gonna think
	It’s my country too
Take your position bout the nation’s condition
	It’s my country too 
Republican or democrat; anglo, in-between or black
It’s my country too	 
Don’t care about entitlement, pedigree or law degree
It’s my country too
 
V3 Civic leaders seem to have lost their way and in a sense that’s true
But that don’t mean they don’t care about the country, just like me and you.
The thing we got to do, is take the whole village, all of us do our part
Let no nonsense stand in our way, back to back, hands together, make  a new start

V4  Common sense and unity, That’s right, it’s our best and biggest key 
Respecting mankind through the law is our one true democracy
The land of the free and
 The home of the brave, on that we stand united
This here’s America, my friend, you know what, we have decided…  
 …   bullies are not invited



Chorus 1
Say what you wanna say, think what you gonna think
	It’s my country too
Take your position bout the nation’s condition
	It’s my country too 
Republican or democrat; anglo, in-between or black
It’s my country too	 
Don’t care about entitlement, pedigree or law degree
It’s my country too

Chorus 2
Come on, let’s get together, we can even change the weather
	It’s our country too
Plenty good hard-working people, care about each other say
	It’s our country too
And when push starts to shoving, what we need is daily loving 
It’s our country too
So before we go deriding, better off be deciding 
It’s our country too
 
Bridge
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, 
And to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God,
Indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

It’s Our Country Too (8x)
