Takin' Back Our Country


Takin' Back Our Country

            First, here are the lyrics to the song:

Hop Scotch on sidewalks
Kites in the air
Family drives on Sunday
Blue ribbons at state fair
Those are things of days gone by
I realize how much we've lost
It makes me want to cry

We're takin' back our country
And that's a fact
If it doesn't sound good to you
Let us help ya pack

Transparency means "Let us see"
Keep us informed
What the heck you're doin'
behind those closed doors

Quickly rights are stolen
when folks are lulled to sleep
God's strength is shown
in a country that is free

We're takin' back our country
And that's a fact
If it doesn't sound good to you
Let us help ya pack

Yes, we're takin' back our country
Hold old glory high
We're the strength in the wings
and the Eagle's gonna fly

We're going back to common sense
where honesty was taught
Where our voices are heard
and Senators aren't bought

For years we have sat
with not too much to say
Our elected officials
have surely had their way

Reckon they've forgotten
just who they're workin' for
I'd like to take my boot
and help 'em through the door

We're takin' back our country
and that's a fact
If it doesn't sound good to you
Let us help ya pack

Yes we're takin' back our country
Hold old glory high
We're the strength in the wings
and the Eagle's gonna fly

We're going back to common sense
where honesty was taught
Where our voices are heard
and Senators aren't bought

Yes, we're takin' back our country
And that's a fact
If it doesn't sound good to you
Let us help ya pack
