Abraham tried to set the slaves free
When the battle ended he had a victory
Honest Abe tried to make them citizens
Show them honor, life, and liberty

You can’t wipe away our history
Now we are the land of the free

There were colonies, they fought a bloody war
There was freedom knockin’ on the door
There was bondage, and Manifest Destiny
There was slavery in the land of the free

You can’t wipe away our history
Now we are the land of the free
The land of the free
The land of the free
