Lyrics

In (A7)America you get (Dm)food to eat;

(Bb)won't have to (C7sus4)run through the jungle and (Bb)scuff up your (F)feet.

You just (A7)sing about Jesus and (Dm)drink wine all day.

(Bb)It's great to (C7sus4)be an American.

(F5)Ain't no lions or tigers, ain't no mamba snake,

just the sweet watermelon and a buckwheat cake.

Ev'rybody is as happy as a man can be.

Climb aboard, little wog, sail away with me.

Sail (F)away, sail (Bb)away.

We will (Bdim7)(F)cross the mighty (Dm7)ocean into Charleston (G7)Bay.

(C7)Sail (F)away, sail (Bb)away,

and we will (Bdim7)(F)cross the (Dm7)mighty (G7)ocean into the (C7sus4)Charleston (F5)Bay.

(F5)In America ev'ry man is free

to take care of his home and his family.

You'll be happy as a monkey in a monkey tree.

You're all gonna be an American.

Sail aBay.
