Wake Up America

Zdénék Rytiř, Dean Reed

Many years I've been away
Talking about you night and day,
Telling people about my country,
Telling people about my country.

Brother Ho, why would you see
A million killed like you and me?
Our dream, another better country,
Our dream, another better country.

Wake up, America!
Wake up, America!
Your peace and love can endure.
Those taxes that we pay
Don't make us better days,
Those bombs don't make us more secure.

Wake up, America!
Wake up, America!
Wake up and turn yourself around.
Look into every face
And join the human race,
Join hands with all the friends you've found.

Colony we would have been,
We fought the English to be free.
We then believed in our own freedom.
We all believed in our own freedom.

They, the people 'round the world
Also want their flags unfurled,
They can change banners to our country's,
Change the planet to our country.

Wake up, America!
Wake up, America!
Your peace and love can endure.
Those taxes that we pay
Don't make us better days,
Those bombs don't make us more secure.

Wake up, America!
Wake up, America!
Wake up and turn yourself around!
Look into every face
And join the human race,
Join hands with all the friends you've found
