Hey, do you know
about the U.S.A.?
Do you know about the government?
Can you tell me about the
Constitution?
Hey, learn about the U.S.A.
In 1787 I'm told
Our founding
fathers did agree
To write a list of principles
For keepin' people free.
The
U.S.A. was just startin' out.
A whole brand-new country.
And so our people spelled it
out
The things that we should be.
And they put those principles down on
paper and called it the Constitution, and
it's been helping us run our country ever
since then. The first part of the
Constitution is called the preamble and tells
what those founding fathers set out to do.
We the people
In order to form a
more perfect union,
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the
common defense,
Promote the general welfare and
Secure the blessings of liberty
To
ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution
for the United
States of America.
in 1787 I'm told
our founding fathers all sat down
And
wrote a list of principles
That's known the world around.
The U.S.A. was just
starting out
A whole brand-new country.
And so our people spelled it out
They
wanted a land of liberty.
And the Preamble goes like this:
We the people
In
order to form a more perfect union,
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the common defense,
Promote the general welfare and
Secure the
blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity,
Do ordain and establish this
Constitution
for the United States of America.
For the United States of America | | | |
