Az
ehavi Country Music Monday Thursday éppen Amerika születésnapjára esett ☺, így érdemes az Amerikai Függetlenség Napját egy patrióta country zenével ünnepelni. A
választás pedig Rodney Atkins It's America
(Ez Amerika) című dalára esett. Ez a nóta éppen 10 éve jelent meg a zenész
harmadik nagylemezén. Az It's America egy pörgős dal temérdeknyi bendzsóval és azon egyszerű
dolgokat mutatja be, amik olyan nagyszerűvé teszik ezt az országot, mígnem a
második versszak végén elhangzik a lényeg is: I'm
so glad that I live in America. Érdekesség, hogy a videóban feltűnik az
akkor még csak a szárnyait próbálgató Old Dominion zenekar néhány tagja is, ahogyan
egy minibusszal útmutatást kérnek Atkinstől.
It's America
Driving down the street today I saw a sign for lemonade
They were the cutest kids I'd ever seen in this front yard
As they handed me my glass, smiling thinking to myself
Man, what a picture-perfect postcard this would make of America

It's
a high school prom, it's a Springsteen song, it's a ride in a Chevrolet
It's a man on the moon and fireflies in June and kids selling lemonade
It's cities and farms, it's open arms, one nation under God

Later
on when I got home, I flipped the TV on
I saw a little town that some big twister tore apart
And people came from miles around just to help their neighbours out
And I was thinking to myself I'm so glad that I live in America

Now
we might not always get it all right
There's no place else I'd rather build my life
'Cause it's a kid with a chance, it's a rock 'n roll band
It's a farmer cuttin' hay
It's a big flag flyin' in a summer wind
Over a fallen hero's grave

It's a welcome home parade, yeah
It's a man on the moon and fireflies in June and kids sellin' lemonade
It's cities and farms, it's open arms, one nation under God
It's America! It's America! Oh, oh yeah, woo!
