America's Worth Fighting For

A couple of months ago Guitar Man said that we ought to write a Patriotic song.  So one morning, since I now do not have long nails, I picked up the guitar and found a chord progression I liked.  I showed it to my Guitar man, Alex.  He liked it too and thus became the makings of our Patriotic song.

My daughter and I love to sing so we thought since we couldn't get Carrie Underwood that we would sing it for you.  Please understand that this was recorded with one microphone hooked to the computer.  I hope while listening, you will focus on the words,  pictures, and meanings of the song. 

It is our wish that you take part in the voting process and the Patriotic cause to return our great country of America to its Constitutional beginnings as intended by the Founding Men and Women of the United States.

 

    The Country Worth Fighting For

   Lyrics and music by Joan and Alex Lopez
    Vocals: Joan and Autumn lopez
    Guitar: Alex Lopez

      On the road I have traveled
    Things that I have seen
    Patriots in all their glory
    America's worth fighting for

    Feel the breeze of the ocean
    Waves cast from the sea
    Stand high on a rock with your freedom
    America's worth fighting for

    Standing alone in the forest
    Giants fought to be heard
    Declaring their right to liberty
    America's worth fighting for

    Climbing to the crest of a mountain
    Challenges each breath you take
    Hold firm to yourself you will make it
    America's worth fighting for

    Friends meet in the city
    Cowboys raise dust on the plains
    The old bell anchors our nation
    America's worth fighting for

America,

Our America,
    is worth fighting for....
