  [A]  I don't need to be a [C]global citizen

  [F]  because I'm blessed by natio[G]nality

  [A]  I'm a member of a [C]growing populace

  [F]  we enforced our popu[G]larity

  

  [A]  there are things that seem to [C]pull us under and

  [F]  there are things that [G]drag us down

  [A]  but there's a power and a [C]vital presence

    that's [F]lurking all [E]around

  

  [A]  we've [C]got the a[F]merican [G]jesus

  [A]  see him [C]on the [F]inter[G]state

  [A]  we've [C]got the [D]american [F]jesus

    [A]he helped build the [G]president's es[F]tate

  

  {c:Riff x2}

  

  I feel sorry for the earth's population

  'cuz so few live in the u.s.a.

  at least the foreigners can copy our morality

  they can visit but they cannot stay

  only precious few can garner our prosperity

  it makes us walk with renewed confidence

  we've got a place to go when we die

  and the architecht resides right here

  

  we've got the american jesus

  postering the ...(?)...

  we've got the american jesus

  overwhelming millions every day

  

  he's the farmer's barren fields

  the force the army wields

  the expression in the faces of the starving millions

  the power of the man

  he's the fuel that drives the clan

  he's the motive and the conscience of the murderer

  he's the preacher on tv

  the false sincerity

  the form letter that's written by the big computers

  he's the nuclear bombs

  and the kids with no moms

  and I'm fearful that he's inside me

  

  we've got the american jesus...
