This Is Worth Fighting For
[Intro]
This is the land where I was born
Not so long ago
This is the land that's troubled now
With worry and with woe
There was a question pounding my brain
What to do? What to do?
When out of a dream the answer
Came into view
[Verse 1]
I saw a peaceful old valley
With a carpet of corn for a floor
And I heard a voice within me whisper
"This is worth fighting for"
[Verse 2]
I saw a little old cabin
And the river that flowed by the door
And I heard a voice within me whisper
"This is worth fighting for"
[Bridge]
Didn't I build that cabin?
Didn't I plant that corn?
Didn't my folks before me
Fight for this country, before I was born?
[Verse 3]
I gathered my loved ones around me
And I gazed at each face I adore
Then I heard that voice within me thunder
"This is worth fighting for!"
