1. This blessed country has seen its best days
Just look at it now it’s torn to pieces
How did we get to this point aint no mystery
We wasted a lot of years simply mashing up the country
Now can we put the pieces together that will redeem this land
I say yes we can my brother but not until we understand {{more}}

CHORUS

We got a country to build
And if we don’t do it who will
We gotta come up with some kind a plan
To salvage what’s left of our nation
So we aint got no time to chill
Cause we got a country to build

2. It wont be easy restoring this place
But it’s a challenge we all must face
This country is drowning in a sea of stagnation
What it really needs is serious resuscitation
Cause all the things that are bad have gotten worst, what a dilemma
We’ve got to get this country moving, let’s put it back together

CHORUS

We got a country to build
In our hearts and mind we must instill
We gotta start and make preparation
To undertake the great task of rebuilding this nation
It will be a long and hard struggle uphill
But we got this country to build

3. The leaders here they don’t have a clue
They have no idea what they should do
That’s why we cant rely on them to make things better
Cause every time we do they only make we suffer
So we gotta mobilize ourselves and make a contribution
We the people got to be involve in this country’s reconstruction

CHORUS

We got a country to build
It’s a commitment we all must fulfill
Let’s build it for the next generation
So that they will not inherit a shattered nation
So bring all your tools, your ideas and a strong will
Cause we got country this build

4. First we gotta build a strong foundation
That means we gotta upgrade we education
Cause we are certainly not ready to face the future
As we all done see everything now is computer
So preparing ourselves for the next millennium is what we should do
Just take a good look at this country and tell me if it’s not true that….

CHORUS

We got a country to build
And if we don’t do it who will
I am appealing to all citizens
Whether you live in England, USA or Sweden
Come home with your qualifications and skill
Cause we got this country to build
