Rockin` In The Free World (Live in New York - July 9, 2003)

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, oh, near a garbage can Now she put her kid away, she's gone to get a hit She hates her life, and what she's done with it That's one more kid, that'll never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool Keep on rockin' in the free world (3x) (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 ain't a free, free place There's a thousand points of light for the colored man There's a kinder, gentler police man's hand There's department stores, and toilet paper Styrofoam garbage 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 rockin' in the free world (4x)
