All across the U.S.A. [x2]

Forget about the politicians
Forget about the phony TV hosts
Forget about your preconceptions
I’ve travelled the States, from coast to coast
I’ve seen the light in the kids’ faces
I’ve seen the hard work that you can’t fake
I’ve seen the people that are ready to give
It’s the kind of spirit that you can’t break

All across the U.S.A. - The world has changed that September day
All across the U.S.A.

If you stop and talk to a teacher
If you stop and talk to carpenters
If you stop and talk to a family
They just really want, yeah, want to be sure
To be sure they can feed their kids
To be sure that they’ve got a home
To be sure that they can live in peace
The real people aren’t politicians

All across the U.S.A. - The world has changed that September day
All across the U.S.A. - Get out there and have your say
All across the U.S.A. - The people’s spirit won’t go away
All across the U.S.A.

Don’t forget about Woody Guthrie
Don’t forget about Rosa Parks
Don’t forget about Caesar Chavez
Don’t forget about Muhammad Ali
Don’t forget about the Suffragettes
Don’t forget about Martin Luther
Don’t forget about the Fire Fighters
Don’t forget about the regular folks

All across the U.S.A. - The world has changed that September day
All across the U.S.A. - Get out there and have your say
All across the U.S.A. - The people’s spirit won’t go away
All across the U.S.A. - The world has changed that September day
All across the U.S.A. - The people’s spirit won’t go away
