Lyrics
They came from England, across the ocean Their harts aflame and hungry eyes And they fought for a land called Paradise To form a nation, strong and wise The North smelt the iron, the South filled the land with cotton Some were filled with greed, some still knew wrong from right And they divided the land called Paradise Between Blue and Grey and black and white Between Blue and Grey and black and white They headed westward, found gold and buffalo herds Some laid iron track, some laid promises and lies And the Cherokee walked through the land called Paradise Along a Trail of Tears they cried Along a Trail of Tears they cried They told stories to their children about a shot heard ‘round the world And the bells that rang for freedom in a far off land after two world wars And though she wasn’t perfect, people came from far and wide To Paradise They built nuclear power plants, traveled to the moon and back Some built factories, some built towers into the sky Hand in hand they mourned in Paradise As the Towers fell before their eyes As the Towers fell before their eyes They tell stories to their children about a shot heard ‘round the world And the bells that rang for freedom so long ago will ring once more And though she’s still not perfect, America won’t give up the fight For Paradise They came from England, across the ocean To form a nation, strong and wise
