Verse:

She looked so fine, I said
"Baby, what's on your mind?"

Released from their cages...
Released from the rages
Burning in my soul tonight.

I am a patriot, and I love my country,
Because my country is all I know.

And I ain't no democrat,
Sure ain't no republican either,
I only know one party,
And that is freedom.

Chorus:
I am a patriot, and I love my country,

And the rivers shall open for the righteous,
