Thank God, I’m a young American
Mothers, why do you cry for so long
Mothers, I wish that women led this world just as they do for nine months
I wish I could die in a woman’s arms I would be proud and so would God

I’m a young American, Americans, I would love to die peacefully on my land and peacefully in my Mother’s arms
Americans, I wish women led this world, just as they do for nine months

Thank God, I am a young American
America my beautiful land
Please hear me
If God is willing
To take me young
Let me die
Where I was born
Let me die in my parents’ arms

Help Mothers in this world stop crying
And lead this world
Just as women do for nine months
Thank God, I am a young American
