We came like babies |
|
From our home across the sea to see America |
|
And the people opened up their arms |
|
To welcome us... to America |
|
We came like children |
|
From a far and distant land to see America |
|
And the golden sun of freedom |
|
filtered down to us, in America |
|
And the people stood and stared |
|
Loved us more than we had dared to, in America |
|
Super highways here and there |
|
Pretty womens everywhere |
|
Brady Bunch and Smokey Bear |
|
Buildings reaching to the sky |
|
Afro-sheen and apple pie |
|
PTA and FBI |
|
Jumbo jet begins to rise |
|
A joyful nation waves its bye-byes |
|
Each religion, race, and creed |
|
gets exactly what they need |
|
God bless Johnny Appleseed |
