Wake Up America

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You can see There's something strange That happens some-place Everyday But, sometimes we don't hear it The way it is Life is hurried We've gotta run Through every day 'Til the day is done And all that mattered was that We could make it through [Chorus] Wake up! I hear you cryin' Wake up, America – You see we're dyin' Just let the sun start shinin' through I know we've got troubles now But we can solve them Some-way, somehow Wake up, America! Let's find a better day [Verse 2] I can see The human race Fallin' down On its face If we don't let ourselves Be a guiding hand We've got children Proudly raised But we are fighting Ourselves today Let's unite our cause We've gotta pray [Chorus] Wake up! I hear you cryin' Wake up, America – You see we're dyin' Just let the sun start shinin' through I know we've got troubles now But we can solve them Some-way, somehow Wake up, America! Let's find a better day Wake up, America! Let's find a better day
