My mother's people came by ship
And fought at Bunker Hill
My daddy lost a leg in France
I have his medal still
My brother served with Patton
I saw action in Algiers
Oh we must be doin' somethin' right
To last 200 years.‎

I pray my sons won't go to war
But if they must, they must
I share our country's motto
And in God I place my trust
We may have had our ups and downs
Our times of trials and fears
But we must be doin' somethin' right
To last 200 years.‎

I've lived through two depressions
And seven Dust Bowl droughts
Floods, locusts and tornadoes
But I don't have any doubts
We're all a part of history
Why Old Glory waves to show
How far along we've come 'til now
How far we've got to go.‎

It's been hard work but every time
We get into a fix
Let's think of what our children faced
In two - ought - seven - six
It's up to us, to pave the way
With our blood and sweat and tears
For we must be doin' somethin' right
To last 200 years.‎
