This is the place I live, this is the place I be;
I don't respect the politics of ancient history.
Honey, I just try to tell it true.
I often walk around here, I cannot find my place;
Pirates raped my lover and they slashed her in the face.
Just give me words that I might write for you,
Country 'tis of thee, country 'tis of thee.

It is not true that languages do not get along;
They're written down, they're spoken of and sometimes put in songs.
I'm just trying to tell it true.
I count the blessing that daily that the air I breathe is free;
But between a__ault and battery you'll be brought to your knees.
Just give me words that I might sing for you,
Country 'tis of thee, country 'tis of thee.

Patriots shout promises and fools salute a flag;
While the country which it represents is torn apart like rags.
It's not just done in fact, it's done in deed.
Rich man left you helpless with his bank account intact;
Poor folks never had it can't ask us to put it back,
Hurts me deep inside to see you bleed
My country 'tis of thee, country 'tis of thee.
