I give my thanks to America
I live to thank you America
For the right to play
For the right to pray
For the right to say what I want to say.

I pledge my my heart to America
To do my part for America
I'd give my life to save it
The flag of the brave and the true
I'm mighty proud to wave it
America thanks to you.

I give my thanks to America
I live to thank you America
For the right to play
For the right to pray
For the right to say what I want to say.

I pledge my my heart to America
To do my part for America
I'd give my life to save it
The flag of the brave and the true
I'm mighty proud to wave it
America thanks to you.

(Durbin and chorus)

I pledge my my heart to America
To do my part for America
I'm mighty proud to wave it
America thanks to you.
