We came like babies

From our home across the sea to see America

And the people opened up their arms

To welcome us... to America



We came like children

From a far and distant land to see America

And the golden sun of freedom

filtered down to us, in America



And the people stood and stared

Loved us more than we had dared to, in America



Super highways here and there

Pretty womens everywhere

Brady Bunch and Smokey Bear

Buildings reaching to the sky

Afro-sheen and apple pie

PTA and FBI



Jumbo jet begins to rise

A joyful nation waves its bye-byes



Each religion, race, and creed

gets exactly what they need

God bless Johnny Appleseed
