VERSE:
Dj7 <- (2)
Winds of change blowing strong
Dj7 <- (2)
Thought I'd heard someone sing this song
Dj7 <- (2)
Days of peace are not that hard to find
Pick up the dream you left behind.
CHORUS:
Young and old, rich and poor,
Black and white can rhyme,
Dj7
Wake up America, it's been a long long time.
VERSE:
Dj7
Time has come to make a choice
Dj7
To give the people, give 'em back the voice
Dj7
Will we leave this land in the hands of greed
Or will we answer our brother's needs?
CHORUS:
Young and old, rich and poor,
Black and white can rhyme,
Dj7
Come home America, it's been a long long time,
Dj7
Come home America, it's been a long long time.
