That Ain't My America

That Ain't My America - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Sometimes I wanna light up underneath the no smoking sign

Sometimes I wished they'd tell me how justice got so blind

I wish they'd just leave me alone 'cause I'm doing alright

You can take your change on down the road

And leave me here with mine

'Cause that ain't my America that ain't this country's roots

You wanna slam ol' Uncle Sam but I ain't letting you

I'm mad as hell

And you know I still bleed red white and blue

That ain't us that ain't my America

That ain't my America

Yeah I was standing there in Dallas

Waiting on a plane

I overheard an old man tell a young soldier thanks

Young soldier hung his head

And said it's hard to believe

You're the only one

That took the time to say a word to me

And the old man said

That ain't my America

That ain't this country's roots

You wanna slam ol' Uncle Sam but I ain't letting you

Yeah I'm mad as hell

And you know I still bleed red white and blue

That ain't us that ain't my America

That ain't my America

It's to the women and men in their hands

They hold a bible and a gun

And they ain't afraid of nothing

When they're holding either one

Now there's kids that can't pray in school

Hundred dollar tanks of gas

I can tell you right now this country ain't

Ain't supposed to be like that

No that ain't my America

That ain't this country's roots

You wanna slam ol' Uncle Sam

But I ain't letting you

Yeah I'm mad as hell

And you know I still bleed red white and blue

That ain't us and that ain't my that ain't my America

Oh no that ain't my America

No no no no

That ain't my America oh no
