"Of Thee I Sing" lyrics

"Of Thee I Sing"

From the Island of Manhattan to the Coast of Gold
From North to South, from East to West
You are the one I love the best
You're the dream boy of the sweetest story ever told
A dream I sought both night and day
For years through all the U.S.A
The star I've hitched my wagon to
Is very obviously you

Of thee I sing, baby
Summer, autumn, winter, spring, baby
You're my silver lining
You're my sky of blue
There's a love light shining
Just because of you

Of thee I sing, baby
You have got that certain thing, baby
Shining star and inspiration
Worthy of a mighty nation
Of thee I sing


Writer(s): Leon Russell
