Our nation is no longer worthy,
Of protection from the Lord above;
It cares not for its own people,
It has little compassion or love.

If this sounds all too familiar,
And it sure sounds that way to me;
Then we must take action right now,
To regain our right to live free.

Our Constitution clearly demands,
Equality for one and for all;
We can't turn our eyes and look away,
While America continues her fall.

We see it every day and night,
Our homeless asleep on the street;
Our veterans returning home,
Can't seem to make both ends meet.

We sent our industries overseas,
So the rich could make an extra buck;
We sold out our own economy,
Was we who created our bad luck.

When will we all ever wake up?
It's we who control our own fate;
We can revive this country again,
But do it now before it’s too late.

 Control it with our own spending,
That is the true reality;
My friends, what we have all become,
We're our own worst enemy.

I don’t have a Sony Play Station,
I’ll not buy Toyota or Subaru;
I would never drive a Huyndai,
For I have too much respect for you.

That's what this is really about,
Patriotism has become a charade;
Every time you buy foreign,
Your freedoms you're giving in trade.

Go to Japan, try to buy a Ford,
You will pay an exorbitant toll;
The equation simply won’t work out,
The cost is our unemployment roll.

As for those that we’ve elected,
They don‘t vote the will of the many;
The lobbyists and the bureaucrats,
They have control of our every penny.

We can only protect ourselves,
The time is now to save our own land;
For the sake of your children and theirs,
Are you willing to take a final stand?

And while I am on the subject,
Let’s talk a bit about our oil;
Gas prices are out of control,
Yet it is here, below our own soil.

But still we import what we use,
And our troops continue to bleed;
Alaska, the Gulf, George's Banks,
Colorado could fill all our needs.

We have no need for imported crude,
If all the facts could ever be told;
Deals have been made and money's been paid,
The corporate buffoons are very bold.

Did I mention the state of our souls?
What's happened to our morality;
God's another touchy subject,
God is great but not politically.

What a mess our nation is in,
We are certainly not worthy;
Of God's protection from above,
Friends, our affairs are too dirty.

Our nation needs a leader now,
With a heart as his very core;
Who cares for all of the people,
In God he should trust ever more.

A Washington, a Lincoln, a Jefferson,
Someone who will lead us with love;
A person for all of the people,
Who will pray to our Lord up above.
