Proud Of My Country

Proud Of My Country - Bonfire

I was raised in a smalltown

Just a little German boy

I didn't care about history

I just cared about my toys

I never felt responsible

For what happened in a war

But they made me feeling guilty

Even though I wasn't born

I remember I was 18

When I heard the Army call

And I learned a lot about killing man

And drinkin' alcohol

It was like a game of cowboys

The good against the bad

The others were the good guys

I was German I was bad

Ain't nothing wrong

To love your home

Like anyboy in the world

Yesterday's gone and we belong

To a new generation

Singin' this song

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud of it's people

Proud to be free

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud I was born here

Proud of Germany

Well I made this trip to Vegas

With a friend of mine

Some people heard we're German

And they called us "Nazi swines"

Do you think it's fair to blame me

For the things I haven't done

So tell me how long

Will this be going on

I wanna know

If you don't know

That you're hurting me and my country

Yesterday's gone and we belong

To a new german nation

Who has found it's home

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud of it's people

Proud to be free

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud I was born here

Proud of Germany

Freedom of mind

Freedom of speech

Freedom to everyone in the world

Freedom to live

Freedom to teach

Freedom of religion

And Freedom to each

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud of it's people

Proud to be free

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud I was born here

Proud of Germany

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud of it's people

Proud to be free

I said hey

I wanna be proud of my country

Proud I was born here

Proud of everybody
