There are seven of red
And there are six of white
It's the blood and truth
Of the stars and stripes
Through a perilous night
With our banner waved
In the land of the free
In the home of the brave
Late twentieth century
With "Generation X"
Never has there been a group
More patriotic-less
As the bells of freedom ring
In the name of liberty
We run down each other
Chasing the American dream
Who will help to lead the way
Back to what made our land so great?
Is there anyone who will say
"This is God's Country?"
Calling the New Americans
Ready to make a stand
Ready to take back the land
Calling the New Americans
Rich and poor, young and old
Who have been bought
And can't be sold
It's from coast to coast
Like a growing storm
There's an army of the young
Living above the norm
Four words that you will find
On a dollar bill
They are more than an empty slogan
But the passion by which we live
So come join us in the fight
And run to right
Calling the New Americans
Ready to make a stand
Ready to take back the land
Calling the New Americans
Rich and poor, young and old
Who have been bought
And can't be sold
Calling the New Americans
Red and yellow, black and white
Who'll never ever give up the fight
Calling the New Americans
We all know the hour's late
This ain't no time to hesitate
My country 'tis of thee
Sweet land of liberty
Of thee, I sing
Land where my father died
Land of the Pilgrims pride
Of thee, I sing
It's time we hit our knees
And cry out humbly
Jesus, heal us!
We are the New Americans
Ready to make a stand
Ready to take back the land
We are the New Americans
Rich and poor, young and old
Who have been bought
And can't be sold
We are the New Americans
Red and yellow, black and white
Who'll never ever give up the fight
We are the New Americans
We all know the hour's late
This ain't no time to hesitate
We are the New Americans
Who vote and buy and make the choice
And speak for those without a voice
Calling the New Americans
Who vote and buy and make the choice
And speak for those without a voice
