Ub40 - Oh America lyrics

Oh America, land of the free Your flag is flying, but it looks dirty to me Oh America, home of the brave Anywhere you go you're leaving too many graves The chest is so big but the brain is too small The whole world's crying out 'just stop the wars' Don't care about the climate, don't care about the poor You don't seem to care about too much at all You say you're with God but you wield Satan's sword With kangaroo courts you just make up your laws No human rights oh yes we know the score The bogey man is close, he may live next door When the floods came down it showed all your old traits Condemned your own people on the basis of race Why leave vulnerable people in a vulnerable place? It's a crying shame, it's a freaking disgrace I say the government man, them seem to get it wrong Them seem to make a whole heap of bad decision Time fe good Americans to stand up strong Like the friends over there we know for so long Stand up firm, me say, stand up strong Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon Me say, stand up firm, me say, stand up strong Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
