Lyrics Lynyrd Skynyrd

Lynyrd Skynyrd

That Ain't My America

Sometimes I wanna light up underneath the no-smoking sign

Sometimes I wish they'd tell me, how justice got so blind

I wish they'd just leave me alone 'cause I'm doing alright

You can take your change on down the road and leave me here with mine

'Cause that ain't my America

That aint this country's roots

You wanna slam old Uncle Sam

But I ain't letting you

I'm mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue

That ain't us

That Ain't My America

I was standing there in Dallas

Waitin on a plane

I overheard an old man

Tell a young soldier "thanks"

The young soldier hung his head and said "it's hard to believe

You're the only one who took the time to say a word to me"

And the old man said...

That ain't my America

That aint this country's roots

You wanna slam old Uncle Sam

But I ain't letting you

I'm mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue

That ain't us

That Ain't My America

It's to the women and men who in their hands hold a Bible and a gun

And they ain't afraid of nothing, when when they're holding either one

Now there's kids who can't pray in school

$100 dollar tanks of gas

I can tell you right now this country ain't

AIN'T SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT!

NO!

'Cause that ain't my America

That aint this country's roots

You wanna slam old Uncle Sam

But I ain't letting you

I'm mad as hell and you know I still bleed Red, White, and Blue

That ain't us

That Ain't My

That Ain't My America

That Ain't My America

That Ain't My America
