THE HEART OF AMERICA

CHORUS:
We work hard, and we work long, but it's our hands that keep this country strong
We've got pride in who we are
We are the heart of America - We are the heart of America (1st time: skip)
We're the ones that you can count on when it's time to make your plans
'Cause wind and dirt and fire and flood are the things we understand
Whenever they say the job is tough, but someone's got to do it
That's when you'll always find us there - you know we'll see you through it
CHORUS
We?re your friends and we?re your neighbors, so you know we?ll do it right
We keep you safe, we keep you running every day and night
We?re not the kind of folks to brag, but our work speaks loud and clear
We hold this land together ? so let?s stand up and give a cheer ? let?s hear it
We are the heart of America (x2)
We are the heart of America
From the Big Dig up in Boston to the rigs along the Coast
To the timberlands in Oregon ? we?re the ones who do the most
When the working week has come and gone, you know we?ve earned our pay
We may not make the headlines ? but we?ve made the USA
CHORUS
We work hard, and we work long |
We are the heart of America |--- repeat to fade
It?s our hands that keep this country strong |
We are the heart of America |
