Lyrics

V1
We spend most of our time spinning our wheels
Trying to keep the bill collectors off of our heels
Working night and day still we find we?ve got to borrow
To make enough money just to make it through tomorrow
We need more money just to make it through tomorrow

We?ve got Federal Taxes, State Tax too
Social Security security for who
Social Security security for who

Chorus 1.
Hey Hey Uncle Sam Have you forgotten who I am
I?m the country boy wearing a blue colar
I send you thirty five percent of every dollar
Hey take a good look at me I?m a part of the ones who still believe
Every man should do his best to earn a living
Giving thanks for all the good things God has given us
That?s what makes America

V2
They took the law out of courts and prayer out of schools
Makes you kinda wonder who's been making up the rules
Kicking round the flag and The Pledge of Allegiance
Blackening the eye of what our nation once believed in
Lincoln would role over in his grave if he could see us

Chorus 2
Hey Hey Uncle Sam Have you forgotten who I am
I?m the family that goes to church on Sunday
Hit our knees and cover you at night when we pray
Hey take a good look at me I?m a part of the ones who still believe
In God we trust is more than words on our money
Faith and freedom is the greatness that?s running us
That?s what makes America

V3
They hit us in the heart but our heart is still beating
When we stand together we?ll never be defeated
C3

Hey Hey Uncle Sam Have you forgotten who I am
I?m the soldier that you sent to fight in your place
I feel the blow each time they take a swing at your face
Hey take a good look at me I?m a part of the ones who still believe
There?s no greater thing than love for one another
To lay our life down for our sisters and our brother cause
That?s what makes America
That's what makes America
That's what makes America
