There's colors on the street, red, white, and blue. People shuffling their feet, people sleeping in their shoes. There's a warning sign on the road ahead. There's alot people saying we would be better off dead. Don't feel like satin, but I am to them. So I try to forget it anyway I can. Keep on rocking in the free world.
I see a woman in the night with a baby in her hand. There's an old screen light, near a garbage can. Now she's put the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit. She hates her life, and what she's done to 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 rockin in the free world.
We got a thousand more tonight. For the homeless man. We got a kinder gentler machine gun hand. We got some stores of toilet paper. We got styro foam boxes for the ozone layer. I'm not a man of the people, just keep them alive. God fueled the hurt, God loves to cry. Keep on rocking in the free world.
