"Jon David Kahn's inspiring song, 'American Heart', wonderfully
expresses how I feel about the beloved USA . . . and the great pride of being an American . . . WE THE PEOPLE are all blessed to
be HER citizens regardless of our personal and political
beliefs, as it is our precious freedoms as Americans that
make it so."
David G. Bancroft, USA Patriotism! founder

LYRICS
They say our reputation
Needs a new coat of paint
and a delicate melody
But I say I like the bruises
And a melody don't mean a thing
If we don't have the strength to sing
I won't be made to ever feel ashamed...
...that I'm American made
I got American parts
Got American faith
In America's heart
Go on raise the flag
I got stars in my eyes
I'm in love with her
And I won't apologize
They say that we need changin'
As if all the Founding Fathers
seem to get it wrong
But I say I still believe in
The greatest Liberator, Innovator, Cultivator
Freedom knows
So I suggest you take a look inside
I think you changed already
You went and lost your pride
But I'm American made
I got American parts
Got American faith
In America's heart
Go on raise the flag
I got stars in my eyes
I'm in love with her
And I won't apologize
Dress her up so you don't recognize her
She'll still be there if you wake up in the night
‘Cause a mother can always find her child
Even when that child don't know he's lost
I'm American made
I got American parts
Got American faith
In America's heart
Go on raise the flag
I got stars in my eyes
I'm in love with her
And I won't apologize
I'm in love with her
And I won't apologize
I'm in love with her
And I won't apologize
