We're Going To Take Back America

from 25th Album by Monk Turner

/

lyrics

The youth of America molested by Ronald McDonald
It's true
Has it happened to you?

'cause it starts with a dime and ends with a dollar
Makes me wanna get up and holler HEY!
Well has it happened to you?

Cause it's happenin' all around
And no ones makin' a sound about it

We're gonna take back America 1 2 3
Take back America you and me
Take back America or we're all screwed

The heart of America polluted by a mind of greed
It's true
Has it happened to you?
'cause it starts with a match and ends up in rubble
I think we could be in for a whole lot of trouble
HU-HEY! Has it happened to you?

Cause it's happenin' all around
And no ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound

Sound off! 1 2 3 take back America you and me
Sound off! 1 2 3 take back America you and me

The youth of America molested by Ronald McDonald
It's true
Has it happened to you?

Starts with a dime and ends with a dollar
Makes me wanna get up and holler HEY!
Well has it happened to you?

Because it's happenin' all around
Yet no ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound
No ones makin' a sound

Sound off! 1 2 3 take back America you and me
Sound off! 1 2 3 take back America you and me

We're gonna take back America 1 2 3
Take back America you and me
Take back America or we're all screwed
