OUR SEWING MACHINE
COUNTRY
I can put you in stitches and
Laugh to your heart's
content,
For this is different and
you will
Know exactly what I meant.
So plug me in and get me
started
With a bob to be threaded,
And a needle with care you
Gingerly put in as you
dreaded.
All plugged in and ready to
go
So put your foot to the
pedal,
We'll make something good
And it won't be made of
medal.
As we are sewing, a thought
just
Entered my patriotic mind,
About how our Constitution
came
About and stitches came in
mind.
Each square frees us up
with each
Of our wondrous American
ways,
Of how the Sacred papers
made
Us free from shackles and
caves.
As a sewing machine I can
whir with
Delight and caring for you,
For I can sew on the stars
and stripes:
"Hooray for the red white
and blue!"
Keep America free as you
sew along -
We will do it in our timely
fashion,
Be proud of your United
States because
This is the country you
don't ration.
Whir along with threads and
designs
To keep others happy and
comfy,
Won't you
join me in working for
OUR SEWING MACHINE COUNTRY
