Lyrics
WHERE DID IT GO ...
KEN PRUITT
Lately I've been thinkin', about the way things used to be.
In the home of the brave, land of the free.
I use to have a good job, down at the factory,
But they've gone and shipped it over seas.
Big Brother's always watchin'. There's cameras everywhere.
Better check the books you read, that information's shared.
They say a new day's commin'. On that I think they're right,
But you know I won't go down without a fight.
Where did it go, the country I loved so.
When I woke up this mornin' it was gone, gone, gone.
We gotta start to realize, what's the truth and what are lies.
And God grant us the strength to carry on.
They're worried about gay marriage, while the border's such a mess
The smokers lost thier rights, and the junk food's goin' next
They're takin' away our freedom, just a little bit at a time.
Better open up your eyes and read the signs.
Well I read it in the papers, and I saw it on the news.
Everybody's runnin' scared they don't know what to do.
And that's the way they want us, stupid and afraid.
Well I don't want to live my life that way.
