mid-70's, it seems especially poignant now. (written by: Gordon Sinclair)
America: The Good Neighbor.
Widespread but only partial news coverage was
"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain
When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956,
When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the Nobody helped.
The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped
I'd like to see just one of those countries that
Why does no other land on earth even consider putting
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs
When the railways of France, Germany and India were
I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to
Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one

If tomorrow all the things were gone I’d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I’d thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can’t take that away.
And I’m proud to be an American where as least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA,
Well, there’s pride in every American heart,
and it’s time to stand and say:
I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.
