There's colors on the street Red, white and blue People shufflin' their feet People sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them So I try to forget it, any way I can Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world I see a woman in the night With a baby in her hand Under an old street light Near a garbage can Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit She hates her life, and what she's done to it There's one more kid that will never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man We got a kinder, gentler Machine gun hand We got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world [new verse used in 2016] Got a water cannon for the standing man Got misinformation from the corporation In the endless search for a drop of oil People's lives get shattered while we suck it from the soil Gotta show the children We just don't care So we keep on burnin' it And put it in the air [alternate verse used at the 2019-07-03, Waldbühne, Berlin, Germany show] We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man Got an orange lucifer Using this song again We got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam garbage for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
