I'm Walkin' the Line

Lyrics

Tryin' to be the best I can be Lock 'n load to spread democracy Days of thinkin' are long gone I'm a believer, right or wrong I follow the rules whatever they be Wall Street 'n D.C. tell me I'm free Look ma no hands my believin' is good I'm believin' like a believin' kiss ass should The world is changin' 'N I'm walkin' the line Mr. Tax Man tax away Tax everything in every way Mr. Banker now look what you found! More money to make that suckin' sound! 'N if I slip up 'n want to fight Hero cops know how to make me right Take me to court 'n give me a cell Professional enforcers of perpetual hell The world is changin' 'N I'm walkin' the line I think there is a different way By learning from our yesterdays In finding a better way to live I look at me in dismay How I struggle to always stay In my journey I can't ever say Why I don't stop caring 'N how it's always daring To dream How much more do ya need to loose Until you realize there's less to choose Dreams are worth no more than life Without freedom what good are rights? So I keep myself lookin' straight Get in line and take my fate I'm what you call a new man now I'm an American but don't ask me how The world is changin' 'N I'm walkin' the line The world is changin' 'N I'm walkin' the line
