In America by Fastbacks Lyrics

Lately been thinking 'bout what
What it means to be in a country that's not all that it should be
I don't know if I'm all ready to leave

Do you really want to be in America?
See, you don't really have to be in America
Somewhere else might be better
I'm not just talking about weather

But I don't think that I'd be willing to get up and go
You've got the answer?
Speak up if you know

Maybe it's just that I know what it means to me
To be living a life almost thinking free
I can pretty well choose how I want to be

Do you really want to be in America?
See, you don't really have to be in America
Somewhere else might be better
I'm not just talking about weather
But I don't think that I'd be willing to get up and go
You've got the answer?
Speak up if you know

Who said your life's an easy ride?
Who said the government's on your side?
Think for yourself
Who cares what they decide?

[Guitar solo]

Do you really want to be in America?
See, you don't really have to be in America
Somewhere else might be better
I won't be living here forever

But I don't think that I'd be willing to get up and go
You've got the answer?
Speak up if you know

Be (Do you really want to be) in America
See (You don't really have to be) in America
Be (Do you really want to be) in America
See (You don't really have to be) in America
