Oh my love, it's a long way we've come
From the freckled hills, to the steel and glass canyons
From the stony fields, to hanging steel from the sky
From digging in our pockets for a reason not to say goodbyeThese are the hands that built America
(Russian, Sioux, Dutch, Hindu)
Oh, oh oh, America / Hand
(Polish, Irish, German, Italian)Last saw your face in a watercolour sky
As sea birds argue, a long goodbye
I took your kiss, on the spray of the new land star
You gotta live with your dreams, don't make them so hardAnd these are the hands, that built America
(The Irish, the Blacks, the Chinese, the Jews)
Ah, ah ah, America / Hand
(Korean, Hispanic, Muslim, Indian)Of all of the promises, is this one we could keep
Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reachHalle, ole
(Dream-oh-yeah)
(Oh oh-dream, oh love)It's early fall, there's a cloud on the New York skyline
Innocence, dragged across a yellow lineThese are the hands that built America
These are the hands that built America
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah America
