Justice And Independence `85 — текст песни (Mellencamp John Cougar)

He was born on the fourth day of July
So his parents called him Independence Day
He married a girl named Justice who gave birth to a son called Nation
Then she walked away
Independence he would daydream and he`d pretend
That some day him and Justice and Nation would get together again
But Justice held up in a shotgun shack
And she wouldn`t let nobdoy in
So a Nation cried
CHORUS
Oh, oh
When a Nation cries
His tears fall down like missiles from the skies
Justice look into Independence`s eyes
Can you make everything alright
Can you keep your Nation warm tonight
Well Nation grew up and got himself a big reputation
Couldn`t keep the boy at home no, no
He just kept running `round and `round and `round and `round
Indpendence and Justice well they felt so ashamed
When the Nation fell down they argued who was to blame
Nation if you`ll come home we`ll have this family again
Oh, Nation, don`t cry
CHORUS
Roll a rock across the country
Everybody come along
When you`re feelin` down, yeah, yeah
Just sing this song, yeah yeah
