The House I Live In Dianne Reeves

The House I Live In - Dianne Reeves
The house that I live in
A plot of earth, a street
The grocer and the butcher
And the people that I meet

The children in the playground
The faces that I see
All races and religions
That's America to me

The place that I work in
The worker by my side
The little towns and cities
Where my people lived and died

The hello and the handshake
The air of feeling free, oh
And the right to speak my mind out
That's America to me

The things I see about me
The big things and the small
The little corner news stand
And the house, a mile tall

The wedding and the churchyard
The laughter and the tears
The dream that's been growing
For over four hundred years
