From the rolling hills of Tennessee
To the wide Texas plains
Where the blue sky meets the amber waves
And freedom reigns
In small-town bars and open fields
Stories come alive
Of love and loss and dreams so real
Where hearts survive
Raise your voice to the horizon
Let the melody soar high
This is the anthem of our land
For every heart and every hand
Underneath the same wide sky
With a six-string and a broken heart
We tell our tale so true
Of pick-up trucks and midnight stars
And the red white and blue
From the factory floors to the county fairs
Our spirit's in the song
In every note and every prayer
We all belong
Raise your voice to the horizon
Let the melody soar high
This is the anthem of our land
For every heart and every hand
Underneath the same wide sky
Through the trials and the triumphs
In the darkness and the light
We find our strength in harmony
Together we unite
From the bayous down in Louisiana
To the Rockies' snow-capped peaks
In every corner of this great land
Our soul speaks
We sing for the farmers and the soldiers
For the dreamers and the brave
In every heart a story lives
And every song's a wave
Raise your voice to the horizon
Let the melody soar high
This is the anthem of our land
For every heart and every hand
Underneath the same wide sky
So let the music play on
In every town and city street
For the love of country and all who stand
This anthem's beat
