Made in America Songtext

Made in America Songtext
I don′t care how hard the hardship
No one has the right to steal
And you cannot buy your soul back
God don't make that kind of deal
When your prayers all go unanswered
And the dust is getting worse
And you live near open sewers
With just pennies in your purse
That is when the good Lord
Will become your savior
He will lead you to the light
We are all God′s children
His arms always open
We must all do what is right
You may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let's not forget
You were made in America
We may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let's not forget
We were made in America
We were made in America
You can′t blame ′em
Who could blame 'em
Ain′t their fault they turned to crime
A bar of soap's a luxury
Don′t get much change from a dime
You can't blame those kids for wantin′
To fill up their shopping bags
City hall is low on kindness
But, it don't run out of flags
They both grew up hungry
They were heading over
Thanks to good ol' USA
All who sin must answer
(All who sin)
And these two will answer
(We will pray)
They will face the judgement day
Sure, they robbed some men
And they will again
Poor kids, all of them
They were made in America
They had
Holes in every shoe
No dream can come true
They stole, wouldn′t you?
We may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let′s not forget
We were made in America
We may be in debt
(Wash away the demons)
Wake up in a sweat
(Fill your heart with kindness)
But, we can't forget
We were made in America
(We were)
We were made in America
(We were made in America)
We were made in America
Made in America
We were made in America
No one has the right to steal
And you cannot buy your soul back
God don't make that kind of deal
When your prayers all go unanswered
And the dust is getting worse
And you live near open sewers
With just pennies in your purse
That is when the good Lord
Will become your savior
He will lead you to the light
We are all God′s children
His arms always open
We must all do what is right
You may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let's not forget
You were made in America
We may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let's not forget
We were made in America
We were made in America
You can′t blame ′em
Who could blame 'em
Ain′t their fault they turned to crime
A bar of soap's a luxury
Don′t get much change from a dime
You can't blame those kids for wantin′
To fill up their shopping bags
City hall is low on kindness
But, it don't run out of flags
They both grew up hungry
They were heading over
Thanks to good ol' USA
All who sin must answer
(All who sin)
And these two will answer
(We will pray)
They will face the judgement day
Sure, they robbed some men
And they will again
Poor kids, all of them
They were made in America
They had
Holes in every shoe
No dream can come true
They stole, wouldn′t you?
We may be in debt
Wake up in a sweat
But, let′s not forget
We were made in America
We may be in debt
(Wash away the demons)
Wake up in a sweat
(Fill your heart with kindness)
But, we can't forget
We were made in America
(We were)
We were made in America
(We were made in America)
We were made in America
Made in America
We were made in America
