lyrics

People have a hard heart, tryin to survive
Better you than me because what's mine is mine
When it's all in the land of the plenty

People walkin briskly, bundled up in the cold
Steppin over a man, he was lying down in the road
When it's all in the land of the free

Purple mountains majesty, amber waves of grain
Searching the whole world for the cheapest slaves
When it's all in the land of the plenty
Yeah it's all in the land of the free

Sit back and wonder about the reasons why
If money flows like a river then why's the land so dry?
We gotta sit and listen to a pack of lies
Tellin us we can choose with a brainwashed mind
When it's all in the land of the plenty
It's all in the land of the free

Sure like to protest, make the whole world change
But I got the gun pointed, don't know where to aim
All the lowdown dealings with our hard-earned pay
Tellin us the world's gone wrong so no one's to blame
when it's all in the land of the pleny
Yeah it's all in the land of the free
Yeah it's all in the land of the free

I would love to fingerpick and sing just like Blind Blake but as everyone knows, this is like becoming the Buddha.
