From St. Augustine and Plymouth Rock, to the Hawaiian Islands Sunshine,
My Love for her runs Deep and Strong, my Pride is in her Soul.
This is America, America,
This is America, and my pride is in her soul.

The Bill of Rights that We Believe, the Cause that is our Freedom.
We hold them Sacred in our Hearts, Ideals that we Believe,
This is America, America,
This is America, and my pride is in her soul.

A Shrinking World, a Growing Scheme, Democracy Surrounds us,
Freedom's Bell will Ring again, with Liberty Enlightening the World.
This is America, America,
This is America, and my pride is in her soul.

This is America, America,
This is America, and my pride is in her soul.

On December 6, 1606,
the voyage came from England.
Jamestown was the first settlement,
The first seed of our nation.
This is America, America,
This is America, and my pride is in her soul.

Now it's time for school kids to add more phrases to the song!
Turning more of our history into lyrics ...

The settlement in Jamestown was the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock in 1620.
The Pilgrims were English separatists seeking religious freedom who established the
Plymouth Colony in present-day Massachusetts. Their arrival marked the beginning of
significant European colonization in New England and further shaped the cultural and
political landscape of what would become the United States.
