lyrics

Verse 1:
I watch the news most every night
Each time the story’s the same
The economy’s sinking like a rock
And nobody takes the blame

Instead they take another piece
Of our future’s shrinking pie
As they seize the banks and jobs disappear
Miss Liberty starts to cry

The President and the Congress
Act like they don’t give a damn
It’s time to send a message
And let ‘em know just where we stand…

Chorus:
So, come on, sound off
Make your choice
Gonna make sure Washington
Hears our voice
Don’t want much
Just accountability
And they’ll ignore us
Talk us down
‘Til they recognize
The fearsome sound
Of a freight train comin’
And maybe then they’ll see
It ain’t them that’s got the upper hand, my friend
Cause’ we…surround them

Verse 2:
I believe in God and honor,
Hard work and living right
And how I run my house and raise my kids
Is up to me and my wife

I think no one is above the law
That freedom don’t come free
Uncle Sam, are you list’ning
When I say, “Don’t tread on me”?

<Repeat Chorus>

Bridge:
If you believe like I do
In the greatness of this land
Know that you are not alone
United will we stand…

Final Chorus:
So, come on, sound off
Make your choice
Gonna make sure Washington
Hears our voice
Don’t want much
Just accountability
And they’ll ignore us
Run us down
‘Til they recognize
The awesome sound
Of a freight train comin’
And maybe then they’ll see
It ain’t them that’s got the upper hand, my friend
Cause’ we…surround them

Yeah, we…surround them
