DON'T BITE THE HAND THAT'S FEEDING YOU

LAST NIGHT AS I LAY SLEEPING
A WONDERFUL DREAM CAME TO ME
I SAW UNCLE SAMMY WEEPING
FOR HIS CHILDREN FROM OVER THE SEA
THEY HAD COME TO HIM, FRIENDLESS AND STARVING
AND HE TOOK THEM INTO THE FOLD
AND NOW WHILE IN TROUBLE HE NEEDS YOU
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER YOUR OATH

IF YOU DON'T LIKE YOUR UNCLE SAMMY
THEN GO BACK TO YOUR HOME O'ER THE SEA
TO THE LAND FROM WHERE YOU CAME
WHATEVER BE ITS NAME
BUT DON'T BE UNGRATEFUL TO ME

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE STARS IN OLD GLORY
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE
THEN DON'T ACT LIKE THE CUR IN THE STORY
DON'T BITE THE HAND THAT'S FEEDING YOU

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE STARS IN OLD GLORY
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE
THEN DON'T ACT LIKE THE CUR IN THE STORY
DON'T BITE THE HAND THAT'S FEEDING YOU

Words & Music: Thomas Hoier and Jimmie Morgan
Arranged by: Carl Cotner
