Lyrics
We stand together, we stand up proud
And when we sing the star spangled banner, we sing it our way and loud
We're red white and blue, there's nothing you can do
To change the way we feel today we're gonna stand up and say
We are Americans, Americans, we come from every part of the world
We come from every land
We are Americans, Americans, united, united we stand
We're not all the same, we're not always right
But if you're gonna start a battle with us you'd best get ready for a fight
We'll do all we can, 'cause we understand
That we are not just the users we are the keepers of our land
We are Americans, Americans, we come from every part of the world
We come from every land
We are Americans, Americans, united, united we stand
We know in our hearts we'll do our part to right this wrong
We know it takes some time but we've made up our minds to make our country strong
We are Americans, Americans, we come from every part of the world
We come from every land
We are Americans, Americans, united, united we stand
