Jackson Browne - For America Şarkı Sözleri
Jackson Browne
| Şarkı Sözleri
as if i really didn´t understand that i was just another part of their plan i went off looking for the promise believing in the motherland and from the comfort of a dreamer´s bed and the safety of my own head i went on speaking of the future while other people fought and bled the kid i was when i first left home was looking for his freedom and a life of his own but the freedom that he found wasn´t quite as sweet when the truth was known i have prayed for america i was made for america it´s in my blood and in my bones by the dawn´s early light by all i know is right we´re going to reap what we have sown
as if freedom was a question of might as if loyalty was black and white you hear people say it all the time- "my country wrong or right" i want to know what that´s got to do with what it takes to find out what´s true with everyone from the president on down trying to keep it from you
the thing i wonder about the dads and moms who send their sons to the vietnams will they really think their way of life has been protected as the next war comes? i have prayed for america i was made for america her shining dream plays in my mind by the rockets red glare a generation´s blank stare we better wake her up this time
the kid i was when i first left home was looking for his freedom and a life of his own but the freedom that he found wasn´t quite as sweet when the truth was known i have prayed for america i was made for america i can´t let go till she comes around until the land of the free is awake and can see and until her conscience has been found
