pearl jam – rockin’ in the free world (live) lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
this is the sounds of afghanistan that you’re hearing

[verse 1]
there are colors in the sky, red, white and blue
people shufflin’ their feet, people sleepin’ in their shoes
there’s a warnin’ sign in the sky ahead
there’s a lot of people sayin’ we’d be better off dead
don’t feel like satan, but i am to them
so i try to forget it any way i can

[chorus]
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world

[verse 2]
i see a girl in the night with a baby in her hand
under an old street light, oh, next to a garbage can
and she put her kid away, she’s gone to get a hit
she hates her life and what she’s done to it
there’s one more kid that will never go to school
never get to fall in love, never get to be cool

[chorus]
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
[interlude]
hey, hey
peace, peace, peace, peace
there’s a thousand points of light
no, no, no
check this out

[verse 3]
we’re a thousand points of light for the soldier man
let’s get him home soon, get him home while we can
to the department stores and toilet paper
styrofoam garbage for the ozone layer
he says he’s a fan of the people, i think it’s a f+cking lie
he gives us fuel to burn and his money goes to his mind

[chorus]
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world
keep on rockin’ in the free world

[outro]
usually at this point, we say, uh, three words
we say, “thank you, goodnight”
but tonight, we’ll say, uh, this next song
we still have a bottle of wine left, we can’t go yet
which brings us to the title of the next song, it’s off the last record
it’s called “half full”
