作曲 : Griffith, Jutz, Stefl
作词 : Griffith (Jutz & Stefl)
I've heard enough from pundits,
I've heard our leaders speak
I tell you now
I'd rather talk to the people in the streets'
Cause you don't know someone until you've looked them in the eye
And that gave me a purpose and every reason why
I drove myself across
America from sea to shining sea
From the rocky coast of
Maine to the mighty redwood trees
From the plains of
North Dakota to the
Gulf of Mexico
It's good to know that hope's alive again across
AmericaI spoke to folks in
New Orleans with hammers in their hands
There's a waitress in
Missouri who wants her own health plan
And to the workers up in
Michigan in all the auto plants
There were working men and women saying yes, we can
Your checks and stocks and banks can't take our hope away
You can't foreclose on hope, nobody has to pay
I drove myself across
America from sea to shining sea
From the rocky coast of
Maine to the mighty redwood trees
From the plains of
North Dakota to the
Gulf of Mexico
It's good to know that hope's alive again across
AmericaIt's good to know that hope's alive again across
America
