Soldier Blue

Tell you a story and it's a true one

And I'll tell it like you'll understand

And I ain't gonna talk like some history man

I look out and I see a land

Young and lovely, hard and strong

For fifty thousand years, we've danced her praises

Prayed our thanks and we've just begun, yes, yes

Yes, yes, this is my country

Young and growing free and flowing

Sea to sea, yes, this is my country

Ripe and bearing miracles in every pond and tree

Her spirit walks the high country

She's giving free wild samples

And setting an example how to give

Yes, this is my country

Retching and turning, she's like a baby learning how to live

I can stand upon a hill at dawn

Look all around me, feel her surround me

Soldier blue, can't you see her life has just begun?

Woah, beating inside us

Telling us she's here to guide us

Ooh, soldier blue, soldier blue, solider blue

Can't you see that there's another way to love her? Ooh-ooh

This is my country

And I sprang from her

And I'm learning how to count upon her

Tall trees and the corn is high country

Yes, I love her

And I'm learning how to take care of her

Whenever the news stories are getting me down, I

I take a drink of freedom to think of

North America from toe to crown

It's never long before I know just why I belong here

Soldier blue, soldier blue

Can't you see that there's another way to love her?

Ooh-ooh, soldier blue (Soldier blue), soldier blue (Soldier blue)

Can't you see that there's another way to love her?

Soldier blue, soldier blue

Can't you see that there's another way to love her?

Ooh-ooh
