In America Songtext / Lyric

Lately been thinking about

What it means to be in a country that's not

All that it should be

I don't know if I'm all ready to leave

Do you really want to be in America?

See - you don't really have to be in America

Somewhere else might be better

I'm not just talking about weather

But I don't think that I'd be willing to get up and go

You've got the answer?

Speak up if you know

Maybe it's just that I know

What it means to me to be living a life

Almost thinking free

I can pretty well choose how I want to be

Do you really want to be in America?

See, you don't really have to be in America

Somewhere else might be better

I won't be living here forever

But I don't think that I'd be willing to get up and go

You've got the answer

Speak up if you know

Who says your life's an easy ride?

Who says the government's on your side?

Think for yourself

Who cares what they decide . . .
