Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Got a hand-me-down map Folded thin in my back blue jean From a dirt road town To a skyline I’d only seen on a screen I stepped off that bus Heart loud as a Fourth of July Chasing more than a paycheck Chasing room for a dream to fly [Chorus] I love America, wide open sky From the cotton fields To the mountains high Every color, every voice Same old heart, different drawl I’m proud of this land And a chance for everybody I cherish liberty for all [Verse 2] There’s a diner off the highway Booth by the humming fan Short-order cook from Georgia Cashier born in Pakistan We pass the hot sauce around Share stories between the fries Different prayers, same blessing Grateful tears in the same tired eyes [Chorus] I love America, wide open sky From the border towns To the northern pines Every language, every laugh Same old hope in us all I’m proud of this land And a chance for everybody I cherish liberty for all [Bridge] We don’t always get it right We stumble, we fight But we keep on saying We can be better than we were last night Hand in hand at the parade Old guitar, kids in the yard Singing loud through the hard times Holding tight to this fragile heart [Chorus] I love America, wide open sky From the dusty roads To the bright porch lights Every neighbor, every name Answering the same soft call I’m proud of this land And a chance for everybody Yeah, I’m proud of this land And a chance for everybody I cherish liberty for all

Gentle sway tempo, front-porch feel that gradually lifts into a proud, singalong finale., country
