Neil Young
Rockin’ in the Free World
[Verse 1]
There's colors on the streets
Red, white and blue
People shuffling their feet
People sleeping in their shoes
But 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 Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget any way I can, yeah

[Chorus 1]
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world

[Verse 2]
I see a woman of the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light (Near a garbagе can)
Near a garbage can (Near a garbagе can)
Now she put the kid away and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life and what she's done to it
One more kid that'll never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
[Chorus 2]
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
We gotta keep on rockin', yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand (Machine gun, machine gun, machine gun, machine gun hand)
We've got department store with no ass-wipe or paper
Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
No fuel to burn, got roads to drive, yeah

[Chorus]
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
We gotta, gotta, yeah
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
We all gotta keep it, bang
[Guitar Solo 2]
