From the recordings MY AMERICA, VOL.1 and MY AMERICA, VOL.1

With this song, I combine my love of country with my love of Doo-Wop. This song is dedicated to all veterans of the Vietnam War era who, like me, are all Baby-Boomers and thus grew up listening to early Rock-n-Roll and Doo-Wop.

This is my country where I can live free.
This is my country where I choose to be.
This is my country that I'm so proud of.
This is the country I love.

There's but one country where dreams still come true.
Known by her flag of red, white and blue.
There's but one country God blessed from above.
This is the country I love.

Now and forever with all of my heart
I'll sing of my loyalty.
Now and forever with all of my heart
I'll sing of her liberty.

She'll be my country from crib to the grave.
The land of the free- the home of the brave.
She'll be my country forever because
This is the country I love.

I pledge allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one nation under God, indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all.

So I pray, everyday, for in God we still trust.
Where God leads He always provides.
Let freedom ring! Let it sing! Let it never be hushed!
For all time, let it chime all our lives!

This is America where dreams come true.
This is America-red, white and blue.
This is America- blessed from above.
This is the country I love.
Yes, this is the country I love. AMERICA!
