UB40 Oh America song 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?

Its 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
