Sunday Morning In America

She dresses up her children

and she herds em to the car

Drives down to the mega church
but cant find a place to park

Then she feels a little guilty when

she takes His name in vain

So she folds her last two dollars

and she drops em in the plate
Its Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

His back is out of kilter from

sleeping on concrete

And hed like to have some breakfast
but hed trade it for a drink
Those early morning joggers,

theyre quick to pass him by

And the ones who drop a dollar,
dont dare look him in the eye
Another Sunday morning,

Sunday morning in America

Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a big screen TV
Theres Winnebagos and boats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake
Its Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Hes hunkered in a bunker

with a rifle in his hand

Layin his life on the line, every inch of sand

But hes dreaming about that freedom

that hes been fighting for

And the arms that will wrap around him
When he comes walking through that door
Some Sunday morning,

its Sunday morning in America

Yeah, Sunday morning,

Sunday morning in America

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a big screen TV

Theres Winnebagos and boats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake
Yeah, Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America

Well, I know it aint perfect
Ya, theres a lot of things wrong in America

But I thank God for those who lay down their lives

To make this place my home

Smell the eggs and bacon,

I hear the church bells ring

Cheerleaders shaking on a 57

inch big screen TV

Theres trucks on a highway and
sailboats on the lake

And a red-head freckled face blows out
the candles on his birthday cake

Its Sunday morning, yeah,
Sunday morning in America

Its Sunday morning, beautiful
Sunday morning in America

Oh, Sunday morning, Sunday morning

in America, in America
