Well if you ask me where I come from

Here's what I tell everyone

I was born by God's dear grace

In an extra-ordinary place

Where the stars and stripes and the eagle flies...



It's a big old land with countless dreams.

Happiness ain't out of reach

Hard work pays off the way it should

Yea, I've seen enough to know that we got it good



Where the stars and stripes and the eagle flies...

There's a lady that stands

    in a harbor for what we believe

And there's a bell that still echoes

    the price that it cost to be free



I pledge allegiance to the flag

And if that bothers you, well that's too bad

But if you've got pride, and you're pride to do

Hey, we can use more like me and you



Where the stars and stripes and the eagle flies...

Yes, There's a lady that stands

    in a harbor for what we believe

And there's a bell that still echoes

    the price that it cost to be free



No, it ain't the only place on earth

It's the only place that I prefer

To love my wife and raise my kids

(Hey) The same way my daddy did



Where the stars and stripes and the eagle flies...

Where the stars and stripes and the eagle flies...
