The wind of change is blowing
And change ain't often good
I've seen the way things are going
Ain't the way they should, but if I could
I'd take us back to a time when
A man could be a man
To be the one who provides meant
The one who works the land, not holding out his hand
And it's true
While my neighbor relaxes, I'm out earning my check
What can I do?
I've got to pay my taxes, while he prefers to collect
Now, I provide for a family
And I'm an honest man
For them, I'll do every damn thing that I can, 'til I can't
But everything's getting harder
And nothing stays the same
I know somebody gotta
Take the blame
Is it you?
Fake news on the TV, and the message it sends?
Is it you?
Who take cues, down in DC, from your banker friends?
Well, I'm drawing the line - I don't care how the wind is blowing
I'm just trying to find the land of the free
And I've seen all the signs - I know where the ship is going
Just give me what's mine, and let me be
Oh, give it to me
Oh, give it to me
I see the cops and get nervous
They stop me on the street
That's some protection and service
For the elite, but I can't take the heat
I gotta be respectful
But really, all the while
It makes you so resentful
Makes you volatile, when you gotta smile
And it's true
A cop sees you with cocaine, you get a slap on the wrist
What can I do?
I get stopped buying propane - they put my name on a list
Now, I provide for a family
And I'm an honest man
For them, I'll do every damn thing that I can, 'til I can't
But there ain't no denying
This ain't the winning team
There's always somebody trying
Plotting another scheme, out to kill my dream
Is it you?
With your faith and your churches, always fighting your fears?
Is it you?
With the safety you purchase with the rights of your peers?
Well, I'm drawing the line - I don't care how the wind is blowing
I'm just trying to find the land of the free
And I've seen all the signs - I know where the ship is going
Just give me what's mine, and let me be
Oh, give it to me
Oh, give it to me
