Lyrics

Brave and free by Dean Holtermann/ Shannon Conley

I been looking down the road at hard times
politicians playing tricks on my mind
taking everything that I earned
why do I feel like I'm getting burned

America ain't what it used to be
america wheres the land of the brave and the free
i'm gonna stand my ground Brave and free
nobody putting me down Brave and free
yeah I'm staying alive

I wanna move to the country, wanna sell my house
but the prices are down theres no way out
I never thought that I'd be dammed
for investing in the promised land

America ain't what it used to be
america wheres the land of the brave and the free
i'm gonna stand my ground Brave and free
nobody putting me down Brave and free
yeah I'm staying alive
I'm gonna make it survive Brave and free
i'm gonna stand my ground Brave and free
nobody putting me down Brave and free
yeah I'm staying alive

I always wanted a home where the Buffalo roam
where the air is clean and sweet
and raise a family out in Gods country
where theres no such thing as mean and dirty streets
just the land of the brave and free
just the land of the brave and the free

there ain't no use crooning bout the days of old
the time is now baby the futures unfolding
I ain't gonna cry while they kick me down
I'm getting my gun and standing my ground

America it's still the best dam place to be
america yeah I'm taking it back gonna make it the land
of the Brave and the free
i'm gonna stand my ground Brave and free
nobody putting me down Brave and free
yeah I'm staying alive Brave and free
I'm gonna make it survive
it's still the land of the Brave and the free
it's still the land of the Brave and the free
it's still the land of the Brave and the free
