From the icy cliffs of Iceland, I've traveled over the land

Through the darkness of Greenland to the islands of Japan

I've met with many people, all kinds of them you see

But I'd rather have America my homeland where I'm free



I've seen the hot Pacific, the ocean wide and deep

I've been in old Korea with its mud up to my knees

I've walked the streets of China, seen all there is to see

But I'd rather have America my homeland where I'm free



I've sailed the wide Atlantic to France and Germany

The beauty there in Paris just didn't mean a thing to me

I made my way to England and on to Italy

'Cause I'd rather have America my homeland where I'm free



And Iceland have its icy cliffs and forty-five below

And Greenland keep its darkness and the freezin' winds that blow

Don't put me off in China or Korea's muddy land

Let Paris keep her beauty and the islands of Japan



I don't want Germany or France or Italy

I'd rather have America my homeland where I'm free

I'd rather have America my homeland where I'm free
