[UB40, Rasa Don, One Love - Oh America lyrics]
Oh America, land of the free
Your flag is flying, but it looks dirty to me
Oh America, home of the brave
Anywhere you go you're leaving
Too many graves
The chest is so big but
The brain is too small
The whole world's crying out
'just stop the wars'
Don't care about the climate
Don't care about the poor
You don't seem to care about too much at all
You say you're with God but
You wield Satan's sword
With kangaroo courts you just
Make up your laws
No human rights oh yes we know the score
The bogey man is close, he may live next door
When the floods came down it
Showed all your old trait's
Condemned your own people on
The basis of race
Why leave vulnerable people in
A vulnerable place?
It's a crying shame, it's a freaking disgrace
I say the government man
Them seem to get it wrong
Them seem to make a whole
Heap of bad decision
Time fe good Americans to stand up strong
Like the friends over there we
Know for so long
Stand up firm, me say, stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
Me say, stand up firm, me say
Stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
Your flag is flying, but it looks dirty to me
Oh America, home of the brave
Anywhere you go you're leaving
Too many graves
The chest is so big but
The brain is too small
The whole world's crying out
'just stop the wars'
Don't care about the climate
Don't care about the poor
You don't seem to care about too much at all
You say you're with God but
You wield Satan's sword
With kangaroo courts you just
Make up your laws
No human rights oh yes we know the score
The bogey man is close, he may live next door
When the floods came down it
Showed all your old trait's
Condemned your own people on
The basis of race
Why leave vulnerable people in
A vulnerable place?
It's a crying shame, it's a freaking disgrace
I say the government man
Them seem to get it wrong
Them seem to make a whole
Heap of bad decision
Time fe good Americans to stand up strong
Like the friends over there we
Know for so long
Stand up firm, me say, stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
Me say, stand up firm, me say
Stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
