She's seen me through lots of troubles She's stayed up nights so I could sleep She's given me more than comfort She's given me something I can keep I love her, and I need her, And I want to be with her all the time I'd fight just to keep her And I'd die if I thought she wasn't mine I love her every morning Thank God for her every night I worship the ground she stands on And I stand on the ground she'll be alright When you need me, you know I'll be there 'Cause you've always been there for me America, God Knows I love you 'Cause you've been like a mother to me America, we've been through troubles And we'll make it again, just wait and see America, God knows I love you 'Cause you've been like a mother to me America, stand up and show it That you're proud of the red, white, and blue You love her, and you know it' 'Cause she's been like a mother to you.
