Lyrics
Words and Music
By Robert Andrew
FOREIGN LAND
Foreign land my brother, Foreign land my sister
Foreign land my Fathers, Foreign land my mother
Foreign land in the grocery line
Foreign land at the five and dime
I live in Thisville USA,
But I feel like I'm living in a Foreign Land Today
I'm not talking about anyone's race,
But I seem to remember a kinder place
(after 3 chorus above and verse/music)
We got it all here, lets make it clear
Bring back respect, bring back love
Clean up our act, and go far above,
far above, far above
Foreign land where I'm alive
Foreign land when I take a drive
Foreign land with uncommon courtesy
Foreign land buzy chasing the money tree
Foreign land with disharmony
Foreign land where we are free
Foreign land with lots of greed
Foreign land with hunger to feed
Foreign land with lost direction
Foreign land with cliques of selection
Foreign land with lots of hope
Foreign land get off the dope
Foreign land, Foreign land, take my hand, Foreign land,
Foregn land, Foreign land my brother, Foreign land my sister, Foreign land
