This Is My Country lyrics

Some people think we dont have the right To say its my country Before they give in, they'd rather fuss and fight Than say its my country I've paid three hundred years or more Of slave driving, sweat, and welts on my back This is my country Too many have died in protecting my pride For me to go second class We've survived a hard blow and I want you to know That you'll face us at last And I know you will give consideration Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation? This is my country And I know you will give consideration Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation? This is my country
