[INTRO]
[D]People think its nearly the [C(add9)]end of time,
'Cause we're [G/D]all together now we [D]drawn the line.
Our [D]flag is up, the [C(add9)]stock market's down,
But [G/D]now we're united from the [D]country to the town.
[D]We live back in the [C(add9)]woods you see,
[G/D]Big city problems never [D]bothered me.
But the [D]world has changed, and [C(add9)]so have I,
And [G/D]America can sur[D]vive.
A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]will sur[D]vive.
We can [D]plow our fields [C(add9)]all day long,
We can [G/D]catch catfish from [D]dusk 'til dawn.
Yeah, [D]we've toughed it out a [C(add9)]time or two,
Ain't [G/D]too many things these boys and [D]girls can't do.
We grow [D]good ole tomatoes, we got [C(add9)]home town pride,
And [G/D]America can sur[D]vive.
A[C(add9)]merica's [G/D]gonna sur[D]vive.
Oh, you [G]can't scare us out, you can't make 'em run,
Women, boys and girls with freedom and fun.
We say grace, [F]we say ma'am, if [C]they don't like that,
[G]We don't give a damn.
[D]We come from the West Vir[C(add9)]ginia coal mines,
And the [G/D]Rocky Mountains and the [D]big city skylines.
And [D]we can hit back and we're [C(add9)]gonna be fine,
'Cause [G/D]this country can sur[D]vive.
A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]can sur[D]vive.
I [D]had a good friend in [C(add9)]New York city,
He [G/D]never called me by my name, called me [D]hillbilly.
My [D]grandpa taught me how to [C(add9)]live of the land,
[G/D]His taught him to be a [D]good business man.
Used to [D]send me pictures of the [C(add9)]Broadway lights,
I [G/D]sent him some of Granddaddy William's [D]homemade muscadine wine.
He was [D]lost like so many in the [C(add9)]terrible strife,
We're [G/D]all asking God now, [D]why oh why?
A [D]tooth for a tooth and an [C(add9)]eye for an eye,
[G/D]That's an old slogan we're [D]gonna revive,
'Cause A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]can sur[D]vive,
A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]will sur[D]vive.
Hey, you [G]can't scare us out, you [F]can't make 'em run,
[C]Women, boys and girls thats got freedom and [G]fun.
We say grace, [F]we say ma'am, if [C]they don't like that,
We give [G]less than a damn.
We're from [D]North California and [C(add9)]South Alabam',
And [G/D]all they've done is unite this [D]whole land.
[D]With no more Yankees and [C(add9)]Rebels this time,
But [G/D]one united people who [D]stand behind,
A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]can sur[D]vive.
A[C(add9)]merica [G/D]will sur[D]vive.
A[C(add9)]merica can sur[D]vive.
