Another wonderful set of lyrics from SrCoops which I couldn't resist putting to music. The only thing I added was a repeat of the last verse. Really like the sentiment in these words. Respect to SrCoops!
Lyrics
Lyrics by SrCoops, music by me
They came from
countries
far and wide
Putting their customs
all aside
Their bravery was
deep as the sea
Sometimes from tyrants
they did flee
They came leaving
all behind
and did the work
that was a grind
They put their shoulder
to the load
and seeds of freedom
they all sowed
So honor those
who built this land
They all deserve
a great big hand

Nice adaption! Love the feel and vocals. The whistle is a great touch.

Lovely song that should be played during the ceremony to cover the Statue of Liberty in a black shroud for the next 4 (+?) years. Great lyrics, music, and vocal all around!

I really like the stripped down sound. Lovely guitar line with heartfelt vocals on top. Well done!
