Hmm, when in doubt...

London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, ya boys and girls
London calling, now don't look to us
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
Except for the ring of that truncheon thing

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?

Flew in from Miami Beach, B.O.A.C

On the way, the paper bag was on my knee
Man, I had a dreadful flight

Steve Earle - Jerusalem
I almost listened to him, yeah, I almost lost my mind
Then I regained my senses again and looked into my heart to find
That I believe that one fine day, all the children of Abraham
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
So I left him in Pensacola
In a trailer in the sand
The man from the picture
Creased and yellow in my hand

"Tonight people from anywhere can share songs or music about or for their countries or home lands. We can share songs for our heritage too."
Song no.2. This one's a little more upbeat, plus I share a home state with this artist.
Living in America / James Brown

"Tonight people from anywhere can share songs or music about or for their countries or home lands. We can share songs for our heritage too."
I was thinking about my heritage (British Isles), and then I thought of this Paul Simon lyric about the Mayflower and thought of how this song -- rather poignantly -- reflects my current view of my homeland.
"And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above, my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
For we come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hour
And sing an American tune
But it's all right, it's all right, all right
You can't be forever blessed..."
Paul Simon - American Tune
