This Is My Country Lyrics - This Is My Country - The Impressions

Do do do 

Do do do 

Some people think we don't have the right 

To say it's my country 

Before they give in, they'd rather fuss and fight 

Than say it's my country 

I've paid three hundred years or more 

Of slave driving, sweat, and welts on my back 

This is my country 

Do do do 

Do do do 

Too many have died in protecting my pride 

For me to go second class 

We've survived a hard blow and I want you to know 

That you'll face us at last 

And I know you will give consideration 

Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation 

This is my country 

Do do do 

Do do do 

And I know you will give consideration 

Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation 

This is my country 

Do do do 

Do do do 

Do do do
