There`s colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin` their feet
People sleepin` in their shoes
But there`s a warnin` sign
on the road ahead
There`s a lot of people sayin`
we`d be better off dead
Don`t feel like Satan,
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 hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts 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,
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
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
We got department stores
and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes
for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people,
says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn,
got 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.
