Being critical of this country IS patriotic. The very fact that we’re still allowed to criticize our country is one of the tenets this country is founded on. That being said, you forgot American Tune by Paul Simon and America by Simon & Garfunkel, and American Music by the Violent Femmes.
Thank you Holly for the song suggestions!
Agree CW. We just wanted to select the best songs with American in the title. However, some of the songs are not Patriotic. We will save that for another song list.
It’s funny that the list is supposed to be patriotic, but some of these songs are harshly critical of America.
