Indigo Girls - rockin in the free world Lyrics

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 a lot of people saying we'd be better off dead
don't feel like saton but i am to them
so i try to forget it any way i can
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world

i see a woman in the night
with a baby in her hands
under an old street light
next to a garbage can
and she puts the kid away
cause she wants to get a hit
she hates her life
and what she's done to it
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
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world

we got a thousand points of light
for the homeless man
a kinder gentler machine gun hand
we got department stores and toliet paper
styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
the man in power says to keep our hope alive
fuel to burn roads to drive
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
keep on rockin' in the free world
