Wild American
                             
You're the one they never tamed

'Cause you stood your ground
                                
And they could not make you change
                                           
You're the warning they still don't understand

Watch your back now
                        
They'll kill you if they can

When they burn your brother down
                     
In the name of Freedom

I don't care if it's left or right
          
It's wrong

If that's all they can do
                       
Then you don't need 'em
                           
You're the one, wild American

Steve Earl
                                       
I remember it was something that you said
                                                     
Put your picture in the paper and a price upon your head
                                          
You said brother, if you really give a #@$%#
                                    
Just remember were all sons of Abraham
                           
Sing a sadder song of freedom
                         
Slowly sinking with the sun
                                     
Waiting for a burning star to lead them
                           
You’re the one, wild American
                           
Sing a sadder song of freedom

Merle Haggard
                         
Slowly sinking with the sun

Willie Nelson
                              
Heroes happen when you need them
                           
You’re the one, wild American
