Prince and the Revolution - America lyrics
[Prince and the Revolution - America lyrics]
Aristocrats on a mountain climb
Making money, losing time
Communism is just a word
But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard
America, America god shed his grace on thee
America, America keep the children free
Little sister making minimum wage
Living in a one room jungle-monkey cage
Can't get over, she's almost dead
She may not be in the black
But she's happy she ain't in the red
America, America god shed his grace on thee
America, America keep the children free
Freedom love
Joy peace
Jimmy Nothing never went to school
They made him pledge allegiance
He said it wasn't cool
Nothing made Jimmy proud
Now Jimmy lives on a mushroom cloud
America, America god shed his grace on thee
America, America keep the children free
America, America god shed his grace on thee
America, America keep the children free
Freedom love
Joy peace
Boom boom
Boom boom
The bomb go boom
Boom boom
Boom the bomb go boom
Teacher, why won't Jimmy pledge allegiance?
