our country

Singer:davies, ray

walking 'round my old hometown

looking for some faces that once knew me

though all the streets still look the same

only memories remain

gone are the folks i thought i knew so well

this is my country

and i can't believe

that one day i want to leave these shores forever

this is our country

it's a proud country

and we'll build a better world to live in our country

people came from all locations

heading for a new life here in our country

different cultures

race and creed

building a society

gone is the land i used to know so well

this is our country

it's a proud country

and we'll build a better world to live in our country

people came from all parts of the world

to settle in this great land

to live in peace and harmony

that was the dream

this is our country

it's a proud country

so let's build a better world tomorrow

build a better world tomorrow

people came from distant shores

setting sail across the water

we'll make this country great once more

this is our country

it's a proud country

and we'll build a better world to live in our country

our country
