lirik lagu america – noah gundersen

[first verse]
i came through the fence in ‘93
i know that they are after me today

i believe this is the land for me
of hope, and grace, and liberty

oh, my grandfather, he told me
son, you’ll never have to run anymore

oh, but i broke the law
which i will surely die for
but, now

[chorus]
i am on my way
i have to leave today
tell my wife and boy that i love them

i gave my son to america
god, i pray they treat him well

[second verse]
well, my daddy left when i was five
i do not know if he’s alive at all

and, it’s hard with just my mom and me
but i work to feed my family
and, i work hard to keep my bitter pay
that the rich man comes and takes away

so, i k!lled him in the dead of night
with my father’s gun
i took his life away
i took his life away

now, i say

[chorus]
i was on my way
i have to leave today
tell my mom and sister that i love them

i am on the run
from america
god, i pray they don’t catch me

[third verse]
now, i sit here in this dirty cell
the jailer comes to give me h-ll

they have caught me and my race is run
i’ll surely pay for what i’ve done

but, then i look up and i see
this old man staring at me
he tells me i remind him of someone

his own boy he left at the age of 5
that probably thought his daddy died
and, how he wished he could tell him

he would say

[chorus]
i was on my way, had to leave that day
tell my wife and boy that i love them

i gave my love to america
god i pray they treat him well
oh, god i pray they treat well
god, i pray they treat him well
