Far, we've been traveling far
Without a home, but not without a star
Free, only want to be free
we huddle close, hang on to a dream
G
On the boats and on the planes, they're coming to America
Never looking back again, they're coming to America
G  D/F#
Em                     G

Make our bed, and we'll say our grace

Freedom's light burning warm

Freedom's light burning warm
