America, I Love You Composer(s): Edgar Leslie - Archie Gottler Performer(s): Claude Thornhill and multiple other artists
A mid fields of clover 'T was just a little over a hundred years ago A handful of strangers they faced many dangers to make their country grow It's now quite a nation of wond'rous population And free from every king It's your land, it's my land A great do or die land And that's why I sing
From all sorts of places They welcomed all the races to settle on their shore They didn't care which one The poor or the rich one They still had room for more To give them protection By popular election A set of laws they chose They're your laws and my laws For your cause and my cause That's why this country rose
America, I love you You're like a sweetheart of mine From ocean to ocean For you my devotion, is touching each bound'ry line Just like a little baby Climbing it's mother's knee America, I love you And there's a hundred million other's like me
