Land Of The Free

Can't wipe the wind-blown smile from across my faceIt's just the old man in meWashing his truck at the Sinclair stationIn the land of the free (Ooh)His mother, Adeline's family, came on a shipCut coal and planted a seedDown in them drift mines of PennsylvaniaIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the free(I'm standing crying)When I go out in my car, I don't think twiceBut if you're the wrong color skin(I'm standing, crying)You grow up looking over both your shouldersIn the land of the freeAnd we got more people locked up than the rest of the worldRight here in red, white and blue(I'm standing, crying)Incarceration's become big businessIt's harvest time out on the avenueLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeMove on there's nothing to seeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the freeI'm standing crying (Oh-oh-oh-oh)I'm standing crying (Oh-oh-oh-oh)So how many daughters, tell me, how many sonsDo we have to have to put in the groundBefore we just break down and face itWe got a problem with guns? (Oh-oh-oh-oh)In the land of the freeDown at the border, they're gonna put up a wallConcrete and Rebar Steel beams(I'm standing crying)High enough to keep all those filthy hands offOf our hopes and our dreams(I'm standing crying)People who just want the same things we doIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeLand of the free, land of the freeIn the land of the free(I'm standing crying)
