tommy cash (us) - so, you're tired of america? lyrics

[verse 1]
so, you’re tired of america?
you’re tired of having clothes to wear and shoes on your feet and enough to eat
you’re fed up with the opportunity to find a job and make, at least, a decent living
you want to change it all + revolutionize, demonstrate, march, fight in the streets
and you want me to join you

[chorus]
well, we’d better stand up on our feet
we’d better think before we speak
these are the things that make a nation weak

[verse 2]
so, you’re sick of our flag?
to you, thе red, white and blue no longеr stands
old glory, the symbol of freedom, has lost its meaning
bring old glory down, stomp it, burn it, turn your back on it
bring it down to stay
and while you’re making a firebomb and growing long hair
your brothers died in vietnam
you forgot that you are an american

[chorus]
well, we’d better stand up on our feet
we’d better think before we speak
these are the things that make a nation weak
[verse 3]
well, have we thought about what we can do for our country instead of trying to make it weak?
have we thought about what the black man and the white man can do together?
and i don’t mean in the streets
have we thought about those who have no arms and legs to fight with and those who can’t speak?
what have we done for them?
have we thought about what we can do to improve our schools instead of trying to degrade them?
who are we trying to impress anyway?
ourselves? or our friends?
what difference will it make fifty years from now to us?
but what about the child you’re rearing?
or is the hammer and sickle more appealing to you than the symbol of freedom?

[chorus]
well, we’d better stand up on our feet
we’d better think before we speak
these are the things that make a nation weak

[verse 4]
so grow long hair, wear dirty clothes, curse the police
burn your draft card, destroy our flag, disown our nation
hijack an airplane, march in the streets
forget that you’re an american
destroy yourself and i’ll see you in h+ll
’cause that’s what it’s gonna be like after we’re through
the great eagle no longer flies, but lies dead in salt
and the great nation that wings falls with it
no, i love america and so do you, if you’ll admit it
[chorus]
well, we’d better stand up on our feet
we’d better think before we speak
these are the things that make a nation weak

[outro]
no, you’re not tired of america
because you’re not tired of being free
