www.goldcountryusa.com has a lot of his lyrics. No luck in finding "America Today" I was wondering if that was the right name because i found 2 different titles by Hank Williams Jr with the word "America"
"America Will Survive" and "The American Way"
Here they are:
America Will Survive
People think it's nearly the end of time
Cause we're together and we've drawn the line
Our flag is up, the stock markets down
But we're all united from the country to the town
We live back in the woods you see
Big city problems never bothered me
But the world has changed and so have I
And America can survive
America will survive
We can plow our fields all day long
We can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
Yea we have toughed it out a time or two
Ain't to many things these boys and girls can't do
We grow good ole tomatoes, we got hometown pride
And America can survive
America will survive.
Cause you can't scare us out and you make us run
Cause were them old boys that have freedom and fun
We say grace and we say ma'am
If they don't like that, we don't give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
The Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines
We can hit back and we're gonna' be fine
Cause this country can survive
America will survive
I had a good friend in New York City
Never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a good businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
I'd send him some of granddaddy Williams homemade muscadine wine
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife
we're all asking God, why oh why
A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
That's an old slogan we're gonna' revive
Because America can survive
America will survive
Cause you can't scare us out, and you can't make us run
we're them boys and girls with freedom and fun
We say grace and we say ma'am
If they don't like that, we give less than a damn
We're from North California and South Alabam'
And all they've done is unite this whole land
There's no more Yankees and Rebels this time
But one united people that stand behind
America can survive
America will survive
The American Way
If you fly in from Birmingham you'll get the last
If you blew in from Boston no you sure won't have to wait
and I'm learning, a little more every day
about the power of the dollar, and the people with white collars
and the good old American way
I've noticed I don't get much help
when they see my blue jeans
Some slick with a suit walks up,
Oh can I help you please
Yes I'm learning, as I gain a little age
About the power of the dollar,
And the people with white collars
And the good old American way.
Some high society lady says
Is your horse outside
No ma'am he's between my legs
But your too fat to ride
And your learning,
A little more about my ways
And what I think about your dollar
And your white collar
And your good old American way
If you don't like my Nudie boots
I'm sorry about that
Don't make fun of my hat too
Or you might get knocked flat
and you'll learn some more,
If you ever pass down our way
About the folks without the dollars,
And without white collars
Hell, they are the American way!
