[Verse]
Suicide rates going up
Homicide cases piling up
Rape and killing, even with innocent little children
To those that can really see
You know that this shouldn't be
Because what America needs is more love and peace
She can be free if she goes back down to her knees

[Chorus]
Oh, pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A

[Verse]
They took prayer out of the schools
Now we have knives and guns
Building nuclear weapons
Everyday by the tons
Drugs have become a way of life to man
Sickness and disease spread all over the land
To those that can clearly see
This is our hope and dream
That what America needs is more love and peace
She can be free if she goes back down to her knees
[Chorus]
Oh, oh pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A

[Bridge]
We can't continue to be the land of the free
Home of the brave
If we don't remember
Pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A
Oh, everybody pray for the U.S.A
Pray for the U.S.A

[Outro]
Oh, come on everybody
Let us join together
Let us pray for our country
U.S.A
Oh, come on everybody
Pray for our brothers and sisters
Pray for the nation
Let's say a prayer
Pray for the leaders
Pray for the people
The mothers and fathers
All over this land
Let's pray for one another
That we could come together
Pray that God will lead us
To the promise land
Pray
[Fade out]
