America
And the dream goes on
America
America
And the dream goes on

There's a song in the dust of a country road
On the wind it comes to call
And it sings in the farms and the factory towns
And where you think there'd be no song at all
And the words are the words that our fathers heard
As they whistled down the years
And the name of the song is the name of the dream
And it's music to our ears

America
America
And the dream goes on
America
America
And the dream goes on

And the words that we read on the courthouse walls
Are the words that make us free
And the more we remember the way we began
The closer we get to the best we can be
Was there ever a time we forgot its worth?
All the struggles and the scars
If we leave to the children a sky full of hope
And a flag that's filled with stars

America
America
And the dream goes on

Remember the voice of Jefferson
And the sound of Thomas Paine
Lincoln sang at Gettysburg
About America
Listen well to the wind and you can hear
From Oregon to Maine
America
America

There's a song in the dust of a country road
It's a song we must recall
And it sings in the farms and the factory towns
And where you think there'd be no song at all
And the words are the words that our fathers heard
As they whistled down the years
And the name of the song is the name of the dream
And it's music to our ears

America
America
And the dream goes on

Think of Roosevelt and Kennedy
And of Martin Luther King
And the way they sang the song
About America
Listen well to the wind, it's always there
And it's asking us to sing
America
America

Though the voices are changing, the song's the same
As it sings from sea to sea
And as long as the music is strong and clear
We know that tomorrow will always be free

America
America
And the dream goes on
America
America
And the dream goes on

America
America
And the dream goes on
America
America
And the dream goes on
