In the song, the singer sings about how, if she were to lose everything she had including her life, and had to be reincarnated in another world, she would choose be revived in the planet of Strawberryland, because under the protection of God, freedom is guaranteed. She remembers how guardian angels died to secure the planet's freedom, and declares that if she is ever called upon to defend Strawberry Shortcake today, she will gladly stand up and fight because she loves the world.

Verse 1

 * If tomorrow all the things were gone
 * And you even lost your life
 * And you had to start again
 * In a planet free of strife
 * You’d thank old God above
 * That you’re living here today
 * Because angels defends your freedom
 * They cannot can't take that away

Chorus

 * I’m so proud to be a Berry Kid
 * For in Strawberryland I'm free
 * I will not forget the ones who died
 * Who gave that right to me
 * I can gladly stand up
 * Next to you and defend our world today.
 * 'Cause there’s no denying I love this land,
 * Strawberryland is my place!

Verse 2

 * Take advice from the sunny skies
 * Bring some laughter to the ear
 * Embrace the love from the above
 * It’s a wish that will last all year
 * Look among the abundant fields
 * All the friends they will astound
 * Let the vibes take control of your heart
 * And the joy will come around!

Chorus

 * I’m so proud to be a Berry Kid
 * On this berry happy day
 * I will always praise the ones who died
 * To let us laugh and play
 * I can gladly stand up
 * Dry those tears, bring the pride onto my face
 * 'Cause there’s no denying I love this land,
 * Strawberryland is my place!

Final Chorus

 * I’m so proud to be a Berry Kid
 * For I have so many friends
 * And I even love the ones who died
 * Meeting their untimely ends
 * I can gladly stand up
 * Raise our flag, join our moment of joy and grace!
 * God has done it right, he loves our land!
 * Strawberryland... is... my... plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace!

Other Lyrics

 * When sung near the end of the episode Recovery, where Strawberry Shortcake sings the first verse, and Cranberry Milkshake sings the second, Apple Dumplin gets an exclusive third verse which is as follows:
 * There'll be times of great frustration
 * And you're visibly upset
 * But as good friends come to help you
 * You'll be much more calm I bet
 * 'Cause you're always safe and welcome
 * And certain to find your way
 * We'll make sure you have the time of your life
 * You will sure remember that day!
 * I’m so proud to be a Berry Kid
 * With a face all friendly and bright
 * I will always recall the ones who died
 * So we could dream at night
 * We can gladly stand up
 * Next to you as the wind of God gives chase
 * There’s just no denying I love this land,
 * Strawberryland is my place
 * An alternate second verse goes:
 * From the southern Banana Boro
 * To the highlands of Edinbrew
 * The Orange Blossom Acres
 * And the Berry Prairies too
 * From The North Pole down to Cakewalk
 * The United Steaks knows the way
 * There is pride in every berry and heart
 * And it's God who'll have us say...
