Well, if you want a _really_ patriotic song, you can't beat "Land of Hope
and Glory", the old British imperialist anthem. It is sung to the tune of
Edward Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance", well known to anyone who ever marched
in a US high school graduation ceremony. If memory serves the first verse
goes:
Land of hope and glory
Mother of the free
How may we adore thee
Who art born of thee?
Wider still and wider
Shall thy bounds be set!
God who made thee mighty
Make thee mightier yet! (repeat last 2 lines)
The candidates who are winning these days in the US would like that better than
anything by nay-sayers like Guthrie and Springsteen, and it can't
offend the kind of patriots found in barrooms either.

"Born in the USA" is NOT a patriotic song as most people think. Just listen to
the lyrics.
For the theme:
Use "Born on the Bayou" by Creedence. It mentions the fourth of July also.

definitely patriotic--he's returning from an international
tour, and reflects on all the things he's missed in his
home ("New York, Los Angeles, oh how I yearn for you.")
Bob Seger's "Miami" has a similar theme to Neil Diamond's
"America", focused upon immigrants coming to Miami in search
of a better life.
Merle Haggard's "Okie from Muskogee" and "I'm a White Boy" have
become anthems for far-right-wing movements across the country.
Proud American Lee Greenwood has a catalog full of patriotic
tunes, such as "God Bless the USA" and "Home to Alaska".
You should be able to find a bunch of his LP's in the bargain
bin at your local Wal-Mart.
James Brown's "Living in America" is basically a rewrite
of Chuck Berry's "Back in the USA".
Some other notables:
Jackson Browne "For America"
Billy Ray Cyrus "Some Gave All"
USA For Africa "We Are the World"
Ray Charles "God Bless America"
Whitney Houston "The Star-Spangled Banner" (her live recording
of this was pretty popular on jukeboxes for a while!)

Naysayers? Hah! Those men tell it like it is. The emperor has
no clothes. I go to bars and while it's hard to offend me, I
find those lyrics pretty cheesy. I'll take Bruce or Woody anyday.
They are a much better embodiment of America than the Republicans
could ever hope to be. Of course, you're probably right that the
superficial bullsh*tters who tend to be elected these days would
prefer "America the Beautiful" to "Born In The USA", *if* they ever
found out what Springsteen's lyrics are really about. :-)

I don't know if this will fit your genre, but it was always one of my favorite

It took 3 tries, but we have a winner. Indeed it was from Boswell's
Life of Johnson. In context Samuel J. was referring to patriotism motivated
by self-interest, not all patriotism. Bartlett's doesn't have a similar
quote from Dylan, but Mencken said:
When A annoys or injures B on the pretense of saving or improving X,
A is a scoundrel.
which is in the same spirit.

Yep, Bob said it in "Sweetheart Like You" on _Infidels_, but I believe
it originally came from Dr. Samuel Johnson (not sure when). He was

Mr. Bierce's definition of patriotism quoted Dr. Johnson, but with
all due respect, begged to submit that it was the first refuge of
a scoundrel.
If somebody has a copy of the Bierce quote handy, please post it.

I know it is about a Vietnam War vet, I've heard it many times, I've
"figured it out." It is still a song about America though. Anyway, I
was thinking more along the lines of My Hometown, not Born in the USA.
I guess Springsteen's music wouldn't be along the lines of what this
individual was looking, he writes about the American experience for the
industrial class, not a general love of America. I still haven't
figured out why your post was so rude though.

sung by Henry Gibson on the soundtrack to "Nashville." In case you're
not familiar with the film, it's Altman's chronicle of how the Religious
Right destroyed America. He sings "we must be doing something right, to

But seriously, "This Land is Your Land" is the definitive patriotic song,
written when the American people really did own their country, and now a

: What about the Steve Miller Band's "Livin' In The U.S.A."? That's a good
: patriotic rock and roll song....
: Bob
GREAT song, no doubt... 'tho the original version differs markedly from
the concert version he now sings!
The original was more than a bit cynical (as found on _Sailor_, Best of /
68-73, _Anthology_, and the Box Set), with lines such as:
"lookin' for Uncle Sam
to give them a helpin' hand
everybody's kickin' sand
specially all the politicans;
We're livin' in a plastic land;
somebody give me a hand, yeah . . ."
Later versions (since he resumed annual touring in '88) replace these
last two lines with "We're living in a fantastic land; we're going to
give it a hand."
Miller is a great artist. I even like the _Circle of Love_ album -- a
lot! Unfortunately, he does have a tendancy to revise his old classics
quite a bit. Listen to the Box Set: he mangles _Baby's House_, cutting
out Nicky Hopkins's piano solo (and thus cutting the song from eight
minutes to two and a half!!) He also did quite a hack job on the Box Set
version of Space Cowboy, taking out lots of the good guitar solo.
For the best versions of his songs, the best bet is to get the original
album titles, which have just been rereleased on CD.
