Lyrics
American
Every family has a moment when they just don't get along
When brother against brother argue right versus wrong
But they sit down at the table with no need to scream & shout
find what they have in common knowin' they can work it out
CHORUS
And if anybody can American
Reach across the aisle & shake each other's hand
The whole world is watching hoping we can get along & I'm not wrong
If anybody can American
Now Old Glory may look faded slightly tattered slightly torn
But there's a beauty in the way she can weather any storm
And now a cold wind's blowin' out across that great divide
So lock our arms in unison cause we're on the same side
CHORUS
And if anybody can American
Reach across the aisle & shake each other's hand
Our children are watching hoping we can get along & I'm not wrong
If anybody can American - if anybody can American
INTRO
BRIDGE
Loud & angry voices aren't helping anyone
All that pointing fingers never did get one thing done
So put aside those differences & lay our banners down
Cause if anyone can find a common ground
if anyone can turn this thing around - there's no doubt
1st CHORUS I:I - if anybody can American - there's no doubt
