lyrics

I was born in America, and I'm glad that I was
But I had no say in the matter
It's just the way that it was
I was born in America
Not everyone here was
Some get to come here sometimes
It's just the way that it goes

No control, no choice over race, gender, color or where we were born
No control, no choice
So what should it matter?
Why it should it matter?

I was born in America
Lived all over the land, from mountains to beaches to Midwestern small towns
Seems like there's plenty of land
I was born in America, now there's a line to get in
Some try their luck at the border
Some risk their lives to get in

No control, no choice over race, gender, color or where we were born
What does it mean to be American?
Is it race, gender, color or where we were born?
