AMERICA
By Bobby Susser
America, America
America, America
There’s something we all need to know
From Northern Maine to Potrero
We see it on a T V show
We hear it on the radio
Happy together, we ought to be
Deep down inside, we all agree
C’mon everybody sing it out now
One, two, three
CHORUS:
America
We come from every place
America
You’ve got a smiling face
America
We come from every place
America
You’ve got a smiling face
No matter where it is you go
Miami Beach or Idaho
The grass is gonna surely grow
And that’s a fact that we all know
No other place makes me feel this way
No other place shines from day to day
No other place makes you wanna say
One, two, three
CHORUS:
Bridge:
We’ve all been lucky to be here
And we all know it’s true
The colors look so good to us in red and white and blue
And every time that we say home
We know that home
Is here, oh it’s here
Repeat First Verse
One, two, three
Chorus: (Fade)

BRIGHTER DAYS
By Bobby Susser
It doesn’t matter if the sky is grey
The clouds will fly away
And a brand new sunny day
Is gonna head our way
We’re in for brighter brighter days
We’re in for brighter brighter days
Everybody come and gather round
A brand new happy sound
Is everywhere around
In every little town
There’s no doubt that we’re bound
We’re bound for brighter brighter days
We’re bound for brighter brighter days
BRIDGE:
And when you see me
And when I see you
There’s something that we feel
It’s clear as it can be
It’s clear for us to see
We’re in for brighter brighter days
We’re in for brighter brighter days
It doesn’t matter if the sky is grey
The clouds will fly away
And a brand new sunny day
Is gonna head our way
We’re in for brighter brighter days
We’re in for brighter brighter days

Building bridges today
So we can talk until tomorrow

That we can be
Similar shining stars

HOPE IS IN THE AIR
By Bobby Susser
SPOKEN: Hope is in the air
When I woke up this morning
‘Twas something like a dream
And everyone was smiling
Like a winning baseball team
Yes everyone was happy
Just happy as can be
‘Cause being here together
Is quite a site to see
CHORUS:
Hope is in the air
Here and everywhere
Hope is in the air
Here and everywhere
We know that life is precious
We know that we all care
And we can make it better
‘Cause hope is in the air
Imagine everybody
Smiling everywhere
And everybody singing
That “Hope is in the air”
CHORUS: (Two times)
BRIDGE:
I’m feeling so good today
It feels like we’re on our way
And I do believe it’s true
Yes all it takes is me, and you
You and me
And me and you

It’s the flag along the way

Stirs the heart as we sing

When the flag is flying there
And the colors that it brings
Makes us all start to sing

THE REST SONG
Featuring: Paula Atherton
By Bobby Susser
It’s time to get some rest
So you can start another day
And catch a dream or two
To help you sail along the way
So rest your body now
Tomorrow is another day
I’ve got a little feeling
Special things will come your way
Instrumental:
Just rest your body now
Tomorrow is another day
I’ve got a little feeling
Special things will come your way
