The Hands That Built America

Oh my love, it's a long way we've come From the freckled hills to the steel and gla*s canyons From the stony fields to hanging steel from the sky From diggin' in our pockets for a reason not to say goodbye These are the hands that built America Ahh, America Last saw your face in a watercolor sky As sea birds argue a long goodbye I took your kiss on the spray of the new land star You gotta live with your dreams, don't make them so hard And these are the hands that built America Ahh, America Of all of the promises, is this one we could keep? Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reach? Halle, ole Dream oh live, oh, oh, dream oh love It's early fall, there's a cloud on the New York skyline Innocence drags across a yellow line These are the hands that built America These are the hands that built America Ahh, America Ahh, America
