    Story Behind the Song
    Written by Gary Revel due to a suggestion by Jerry Guthrie. Jerry had suggested to Gary that they get together and write a song to be titled "Treat America Like A Woman". Gary and Jerry did not find the time to get together to do that but Gary wrote this song in the early 1980's while he and Jerry were still neighbors at the Time Motel on Western Avenue in Hollywood, California. Because of this Jerry has sometimes been given wo-writer credit on the song. Recorded by Gary Revel using the Recording Artist name Czar Tuck with a studio group he called the Zoids-lead guitar, Ronny Hershewe, in 1985 in the Sound Factory in Hollywood and released as a single on Top's Records the same year. The song received several awards including one from the Southern California Motion Picture Council and the record was dedicated to First Lady Nancy Reagan at a ceremony at the White House West in Santa Barbara, California in 1985.

    Lyrics
    TREAT AMERICA LIKE A LADY
    (Gary Revel)

    She came from a call, made to freedom
    Broke the tyranny of King George's Scheme
    If we ever forget, she's a lady
    We'll lose our hope and our dream

    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Treat her like a lady everyday
    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Or someone will steal her away

    Many men have died for her honor
    Shed their blood to keep her brave and free
    Though some have cursed her name in anger
    She's A lady, she'll always be

    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Treat her like a lady everyday
    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Or someone will steal her away

    Red, White and Blue, are her colors
    Dress her proud for all the world to see
    Hold her up, don't ever let her touch the ground
    Treat her like a lady, or let her be

    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Treat her like a lady everyday
    Treat America, Like A Lady
    Or someone will steal her away
