Rocking in a free world
There are colors on the street...
Red, white, and blue
People shufflin' their feet,
People sleepin' in their shoes
There's a warnin' sign in the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forgive 'em, any way I can, yeah...
I see a girl in the night
With a baby in her hands
Under an old street light
Next to a garbage can
Now she put the kid away and she's gone get hit
She hates her life, and what she's done with it
There's one more kid, that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
Keep on Rocking in a free world
(4x)
There's a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
There's a kinder, gentler machine gun hand
There's department stores, and toilet paper
Styrofoam boxes for the Ozone layer
There's a man of the people, said 'keep hope alive'
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
Keep on Rocking in a free world
(4x)
The US of A, the United States
Ain't a free place, it's not a free place
Ain't got the right to choose,
Barely got the right to vote
There they got the right to make an honest buck
The USA is not a free, free place
I see a girl in the night
With a baby in her hands
Under an old street light
Next to a garbage can
Now she put the kid away and she's gone get hit
She hates her life, and what she's done with it
There's one more kid, that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
Keep on Rocking in free world 4x
