lyrics
WAKE UP AMERICA!
Welfare for the wealthy, debt, war, corruption,
treason and an open season on human rights
tears at the fabric of our nation, and the tragic realization
is that future generations will pay ....the .... big....price!!!
Wake up and shake it up America
from north to south from east to west
from sea to shining sea!
Our government is of, by, and for
we the people who can't ignore
that we shall reap what we sow,
so we better sow carefully!
"This land is your land! This land is my land!
If we come together and work together, we can pull the weeds
that threaten to destroy our land! I hope and pray you understand.
We cannot reap a good harvest with
a bunch .... of .....bad .... seeds!
Wake up and shake it up America
from north to south from east to west
from sea to shining sea!
Our government is of, by, and for
we the people who can't ignore
that we shall reap what we sow,
so we better sow carefully!
Abraham Lincoln proclaimed "We are a government of the people,
by the people, and for the people,"
not of the corporations, by the corporations,
and for the corporations! He also observed,
"You can fool all the people some of the time
and some of the people all of the time,
but you can't fool all the people all of the time"!
Wake up and shake it up America!
Our government is of, by, and for
we the people who can't ignore
that we shall reap what we sow,
so we better sow carefully!
Wake up and shake it up America
from north to south from east to west
from sea to shining sea!
Our government is of, by, and for
we the people who can't ignore
that we shall reap what we sow,
so we better sow carefully!"
Wake up and shake it up America!
