Jon Bon Jovi
Rocking in the Free World (Live in Johannesburg, 1995)
[Intro]
Two, three, four!
[Verse 1]
There's colors in the night
Red, white, and blue
People shuffling their feet
People swimmin' in their shoes
Well, there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
Some people who be sayin', "We'd be better off dead"
I don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it, any way I can
[Chorus]
So 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
Free world
[Verse 2]
I seen a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
By an old street light (Old street light)
Near a garbage can (Garbage kid)
She threw the kid away, she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life and what she’s done with it
There'll one more kid who'll never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
[Chorus]
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
Free
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got this kinder, gentler machine gun hand
We got department stores, sellin' toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Gotta be like the people (Hey), gotta keep 'em all alive (Hey)
Got no more fuel (Hey), he knows the sides
[Chorus]
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
Free world
