The Lyrics

Based on John Denver's "Take Me Home Counrty Roads"
Almost heaven, New York City
Gleaming buildings, standing tall and proud
Reaching to the sun it seems
Life short on earth can be, shorter than your hopes and dreams
Swifter than a blink of eye
Flowing like a virgin stream, makes you never wanna say goodbye

We thought we were in paradise
When in the morning sun
Two Boeings tore through the blue blue autumn skies
Once tall and proud
In two or so hours
The towers crumbled to the ground
And then we realized
Being so insecure, cherish we our freedom must
The streets were dark and dusty
We had teardrops in our eyes

Yet our flag waves splendidly as ever
Free men we will all be forever
United we as always stand
Freedom rings from shining sea to sacred land

I hear the jet in the morning hour it roars in the sky
Oh why oh why will I soon die
The autumn air reminds me of my home far far away
Looking out thinking why, why didn't I come home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads I wanna go home
To the place I belong, beef and gravy, homemade stew,
Still so young, wish I could start anew

Yet our flag waves splendidly as ever
Free men we will all be forever
United we as always stand
Freedom rings from shining sea to sacred land

And our flag waves splendidly as ever
Free men we will all be forever
United we as always stand
Freedom rings from shining sea to sacred land

Why is this parody simply named "Unnamed?"
