    Lyrics:
    America has dusted off her dreams before
    Whenever she’s been meant for something more
    And right now she doesn’t feel quite right
    Fear and sorrow raining down from shore to shore
    We all hear the call from sea to shining sea
    But leave it up to someone else to lead the way
    When in fact it’s up to each and every one of us
    That’s the real American way
    So what will you do
    What will you say
    What stand will you take
    Get started today
    In each of our dreams
    There’s something we’re trying to reach
    We must save this democracy 'cause
    This Country ’Tis of Thee
    We’re a nation trying to heal herself
    We’re a nation who weeps
    We’re a nation who’s gotta make tough choices now
    To remain the land of the free
    We all hear the call from sea to shining sea
    But leave it up to someone else to lead the way
    When in fact it’s up to each and every one of us
    That’s the real American way
    So what will you do
    What will you say
    What stand will you take
    Get started today
    In each of our dreams
    There’s something we’re trying to reach
    We must save this democracy cause
    This Country ’Tis of Thee
    We just can’t take the backseat
    To the dreams that we’ve held dear
    It’s because America ’tis of thee
    Her best is yet to appear
    So what will you do
    What will you say
    What stand will you take
    Get started today
    In each of our dreams
    There’s something we’re trying to reach
    We must save this democracy 'cause
    This Country ’Tis of Thee
    It’s up to each one of us to keep Lady Liberty free
    Oh oh oh - keep Lady Liberty free, what stand will you take.
    For This Country ’Tis of Thee - Let’s keep her free
    La la la la la la la la la -----THIS COUNTRY ’TIS OF THEE!!!!!!!!

      You Rock Ed! Thanks for helping to spread the word so listeners/viewers can take part in this conversation. Thanks too for figuring out that for folks to be able to comment like you did, they have to be sure they are signed in with a google account using a google email ( like gmail or hotmail) and there are tutorials online to explain how to do that & then they can comment, too!

    Wow...as long as I have known you, you have always had the right words and message for the times. What a great, inspiring and moving video. And ditto all that Gail said. 🙂 I hope everyone who sees this shares it far and wide. It deserves to go viral - a spot on and badly needed message. Yes - Vote!

      Hey D - Thank you SOOOO for the awesome support! My hope is that the tune gets peeps out to polls & helps folks to not get hung up on perfect candidate issues that distract. The deal is to vote to save democracy - that's the only bottom line now!
