Molly Hatchet - Heart of the U.S.A. Lyrics

Four decades ago a man left Mississippi
To fight the war in Vietnam
Did two tours and got shot received the medal of honor
When he got home he wasn't the same man

But when you get home tonight
And give thanks to your Maker
For your loved ones and the food on your table
Say a prayer for the ones who lost their lives
And the men left in the field of battle

A heroes welcome that needs to be told
To pass through the ages of the young and old
They fought for the truth and the will to survive
All American by birth and born with Southern Pride

So raise the blade in the heart of the U.S.A.
Oh, oh, oh, we're all part of he U.S.A.
Gimme them stars and bars for heritage not hate
Oh, oh, oh, it's the heart of the U.S.A.

A heroes welcome that needs to be told
To pass through the ages of the young and old
They fought for the truth and the will to survive
All American by birth and born with Southern Pride

So raise the blade in the heart of the U.S.A.
Oh, oh, oh, we're all part of he U.S.A.
Gimme them stars and bars for heritage not hate
Oh, oh, oh, 'cause it's the heart of the U.S.A.

So raise the blade in the heart of the U.S.A.
Oh, oh, oh, we're all part of he U.S.A.
Gimme them stars and bars in Jacksonville Fla
Oh, oh, oh, 'cause it's the heart of the U.S.A.
Heart of the U.S.A., heart of the U.S.A.
