Pop goddess Beyonce has released a version of “God Bless The USA” ,originally sung by country artist Lee Greenwood in 1984, to raise money for the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
The track made its debut on CNN talk show Piers Morgan Tonight last night. All proceeds from the downloads will go to New York Police and Fire Widows’ and Children’s Benefit Fund.
Piers tweeted a comment from Beyonce about the song: “We were all affected by the tragedies of 9/11 and continue to keep the families who lost loved ones close to our hearts … Lee Greenwood, the writer of the song, is also donating his proceeds to help the 9/11 families. Thank you Piers Morgan and CNN for helping to get the message out to everyone about this.”
The song can be yours on iTunes or her website.
