[Intro]
G C
[Verse 1]
GWanna know what Uncle Joe thinks?
We oughta takCe them tanks and guns and bombs
And loadG them planes and get them boys and girls on home C
That gets my dadG mad, boiling red
CRevved up vein poppin' outta his head
Sayin' you Gpull out now, you shame the ones
Who fougCht and bled and came home dead
For your riAmght to gripe, lefGt to right
Then momCma shouts, boys hush Gyour mouth
AmGrab a plate and bow yoBmur headsC
And be thankful when the grace is said 'cause...
[Chorus]
GThat's the thCing about AmDerica
G You can dream oCr do or say what youD wanna
You can run Emit down if you can back it upC
You can burGn the flag or be tDhe man
Who takeAms a stand, says I'llG be damned
If some blCeedin' heart thinks he can tread
On the thread of the white, and the blue, and the red
G That's the thing about AmericDa
[Interlude]
G C
[Verse 2]
Now the coffee and the TGV's on
And we're eCating the pie handed Gdown
From my grandma's side from her grandma
When sheC arrived back in '25
She tells us allG again
How her moCm came off of that big boat
With allG them folks all skin and bones
And an aCngry mob sayin' go back home
Now the anAmchorman says they're makingG plans
CFencing up the RioG Grande
Aunt KAmitty drops her forkG and shouts Amen C
And granny says hell just let 'em all in
[Chorus]
GThat's the thing Cabout AmericDa
G You can dream oCr do or say what youD wanna
You can run Emit down if you can back it upC
You can burGn the flag or be tDhe man
Who takeAms a stand, says I'llG be damned
If some blCeedin' heart thinks he can tread
On the thread of the white, and the blue, and the red
G That's the thing about AmericDa Em
[Interlude]
C D Em
[Chorus]
GThat's the thing Cabout AmericDa
G You can dream oCr do or say what youD wanna
You can run Emit down if you can back it upC
You can burGn the flag or be tDhe man
Who takeAms a stand, says I'llG be damned
If some blCeedin' heart thinks he can tread
On the thread of the white, and the blue, and the red
G That's the thing about America D
GThat's the thing Cabout AmericDa
