I want my country back

And a good dream to stand up for.

Got my hand over my heart,

But I don't feel at home here anymore


Big, big flag above the big, big mall,

And the shake rattle and roll to the core.

Things sprawl after they fall,

And I don't feel at home here anymore


Homeland of Sojourner Truth

And Chief Joseph before,

Many quiet words of wisdom drowned out by TV

And I don't feel at home here anymore.


Blind engineer, war train on the track,

Many many a heart is sore.

We want our country back;

We want to feel at home here once more.


I want my country back.
