Thank God for America
They left the old world for the new
And sailed across the sea
Driven from their homeland
To a land of liberty
Driven by the tyrant's hand
From Erin's Isle so green
They crossed the western ocean
To find life's elusive dreams
Into the bowels of the cities and the towns
There the Irish made their way
Across the new horizons
Far away from the bitter sea
They left their homes in Ireland
No more of the land to see
And made their way all over the land
And found a home all over the land
All over the land
Colorado, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Michigan, Oregon,
Massachusetts, and Wisconsin, Maine
All over, all over
Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Indiana, Alaska,
Utah, Iowa, Ottawa, Omaha, Idaho, New Mexico
All over, all over
Minnesota, Arizona, Carolina North and South,
Nevada, Nebraska, Mississippi, and Missouri
All over, all over
Come on everybody, thank God for America
Thank God for America
For your country and your fertile shores
Thank God for America
For we love this land forever more
Each city, each county, all the wonders that we see
We're all part of America
It's a land that's part of you and me
Thank God for America
They left the old world for the new
And sailed across the sea
Driven from their homeland
To a land of liberty
Driven by the tyrant's hand
From Erin's Isle so green
They crossed the western ocean
To find life's elusive dream
Over the hills and the valleys and the plains
The Irish brought the railways there
Blazing the trails of America
Far away from the bitter sea
From the gold mines to the coal mines
Up and down the cattle trails
They made their way all over the land
And found a home all over the land
All over the land
Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,
Nova Scotia, Tennessee, and Kentucky
All over, all over
Buffalo to Boston, Washington, Wyoming,
Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Delaware,
Don't forget Connecticut
All over, all over
Colorado and Chicago, Ohio, Illinois,
Maryland, Newfoundland, Barrow, and Rhode Island
All over, all over
Thank God for America
For your country and your fertile shores
Thank God for America
For we love this land forever more
Each city, each county, all the wonders that we see
We're all part of America
It's a land that's part of you and me
Thank God for America
And sailed across the sea
Driven from their homeland
To a land of liberty
Driven by the tyrant's hand
From Erin's Isle so green
They crossed the western ocean
To find life's elusive dreams
Into the bowels of the cities and the towns
There the Irish made their way
Across the new horizons
Far away from the bitter sea
They left their homes in Ireland
No more of the land to see
And made their way all over the land
And found a home all over the land
All over the land

All over, all over
Come on everybody, thank God for America
Thank God for America
For your country and your fertile shores
Thank God for America
