Alamo shuddered, | |
Pearl Harbour as well | |
The Statue of | |
Liberty wept as they fell | |
And echoes were heard in the | |
Liberty Bell | |
When they came for the soul of | |
America.And the | |
Manhattan skyline | |
Blew my mind the first time | |
We went down to the scene of the crime | |
Lookin' for the soul of | |
AmericaYeah, lookin' for the soul, lookin' for the soul. | |
I don't see no | |
Washington taking the strain | |
No Jefferson, | |
Adams, Franklin or | |
PaineAnd that sure ain't | |
Geronimo running the game | |
Protecting the soul of | |
America.Just them wild boys, red, white and blue | |
Wild boys gotta see the mission through | |
Come hell or high water, my hat's off to you | |
Let's rock the soul of | |
AmericaOh, let's rock the soul, let's rock the soul. | |
Yeah, you can find souls all over this world | |
Lay underneath the stones of insanity | |
Yeah, you can find souls all over the globe | |
Except in the places they oughta be. | |
The sins of the fathers revisit the sons | |
The toil of tradition, the roar of the guns | |
It's a God awful job but it's gotta be done | |
Protecting the soul of | |
America.And them good old boys in their three piece suits | |
Feathering their nests while they're rallying the troops | |
They cut off the flowers, don't worry 'bout the roots | |
Eroding the soul of | |
AmericaAnd | |
I'm looking for the soul, | |
I wanna find the soul. | |
There's souls in the city, there's souls in the sand | |
Putting up with the latest indignities | |
Yeah, you can find soul all over this land | |
Except in the places it oughta be | |
Except in the places it oughta be. | |
Frankie and | |
Johnny in my neighbourhood | |
They don't read the papers as much as they should | |
But if they had the time, they know that they would | |
And you're lookin' at the soul of | |
America.Yeah, them wild boys and red, white and blue | |
Them wild boys gotta get the message through | |
Come hell or high water, we're all rooting for you | |
And let's rock the soul of | |
AmericaCome on, let's rock the soul, let's rock the soul, let's rock the soul | |
Rock me out, rock me out. | |
Oh yeahLet’s rock the soul. | |
Ah huh, come on, yeah | |
Let's rock the soul of | |
America |
