Some have said, down through history
If you last it's a mystery
But I guess they don't know, what they're talking about
From the mountains down to the sea
You've become such a habit with me
America, America
Well I come from, down around Tennesee
But the people in California
Are nice to me, America
It don't matter where I may roam
Tell you people that it's home sweet home
America, America
And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too
And the red man is right, to expect a little from you
Promise and then follow through, America
And the men, who fell on the plains
And lived, through hardship and pain
America, America
And the men who could not fight
In a war that didn't seem right
You let them come home, America
And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too
And the red man is right, to expect a little from you
Promise and then follow through, America
Well I come from, down around Tennesee
But the people in California
Are nice to me, America
It don't matter where I may roam
And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too
And the red man is right, to expect a little from you
Promise and then follow through, America
Tell you people that it's home sweet home
America, America
America, America
And my brothers are all black and white, yellow too
And the red man is right, to expect a little from you
Promise and then follow through, America
It's home sweet home, Amer-ica
America, America
Billy Paul, nato Paul Williams (Filadelfia, 1º maggio 1934 – Filadelfia, 24 aprile 2016), è stato un cantante statunitense di soul. Ha raggiunto la fama internazionale negli anni '70 con il suo stile vocale caratteristico, che spaziava dal morbido al graffiante, e una musica che fonde pop, funk e soul con influenze elettroniche e a tratti psichedeliche. Il suo successo più grande è stato il brano *Me and Mrs. Jones*, pubblicato nel 1972 e vincitore di un Grammy Award come miglior canzone soul. Altri brani importanti includono *War of the Gods* (1973) e *Am I Black Enough for You?*.
