Mount Rushmore

There are four faces on Mount Rushmore
Carved in a mountain of stone
Men who lived and died for a Nation
Giants in a land of their own

From the mansions of Virginia
To the tents of Valley Forge
'Cross the waters of the icy Delaware

Trenton, Saratoga
They remember General George
And recall that a giant, once, was there

"If Men are to be precluded from offering their Sentiments
On a matter, which may involve the most serious consequences
Reason is of no use to us
The freedom of Speech may be taken away
And dumb and silent, we may be led, like sheep, to the Slaughter"

Yes, you've gotta have a giant if you want to save the land
When the savage, hungry wolf is at its throat
It was Jefferson who gave Louisiane to Uncle Sam
And the world recalls the giant words he wrote

"We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal
That they are endowed by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights
That among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness"

There are four faces on Mount Rushmore
Carved in a mountain of stone
Men who lived and died for a Nation
Giants in a land of their own

From the backwards of Kentucky, it was Abe of Illinois
He swung his axe, and with one mighty stroke
He split the rails of hatred, so that all men might enjoy
The freedom told in giant words he spoke

"We here, highly resolve that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom
And that Government, of the People, by the People, and for the People
Shall not perish from the Earth"

From the magic lots of Panama
From Sea to shining Sea
To the bloody field of battle, axe and one

There's a giant walking softy
And, wherever men are free
The ranks of mighty men will be forever marching on
And on!

Oh, the giants who live high up on the mountain
Your eyes may behold only four
But the Spirits of men who share in their Glory
Numberful, many times more

"We have nothing to fear, but Fear itself"
"Ask not what your Country can do for you
But what you can do for your Country"

There are four faces on Mount Rushmore
Carved in a mountain of stone
Men who lived and died for a Nation
Giants in a land of their own

This is the land of giants!
