Keep The Change

If you see me hold my hand over my heart

Before I start the Pledge of Allegiance

There's a reason

It's to honor those who died

And if you see me close my eyes and bow my head

Before I break bread with my family

It ain't a habit, it's important

It's my right

I work half the year for me

The other half for Uncle Sam

While he's bailin' out those sinkin' ships

And drownin' the little man

I watch the news and have to wonder

If this country's goin' crazy

Talkin' 'bout how much they love it here

But how they want to rearrange it

I'm just your Average Joe

And that makes me smart enough to know

There's a bunch of us out here

That feel the same

Wanna keep our God, our freedom

A little money in the bank

Y'all can keep the change

Now the fat cats on the hill actin' so brilliant

Ain't smart enough to notice

That we're angry

And that America's in trouble

If they don't wise-up and stop

Bustin' out the blocks that were laid

As a foundation, well, our nation

Could wake up in a pile of ruble

They say we're makin' progress

But it's a big old shame to me

Common sense ain't near as common

As it used to be

I watch the news and have to wonder

If this country's goin' crazy

Talkin' 'bout how much they love it here

But how they want to rearrange it

Well, I'm just your Average Joe

And that makes me smart enough to know

There's a bunch of us out here

That feel the same

Wanna keep our God, our freedom

A little money in the bank

Y'all can keep the change

I bet our grandpas are gettin' dizzy

Down there in their graves

Rollin' over and over

Over what's goin' on these days

I watch the news and have to wonder

If this country's goin' crazy

Talkin' 'bout how much they love it here

But how they want to rearrange it

I'm just your Average Joe

And that makes me smart enough to know

There's a bunch of us out here

That feel the same

Gonna keep our God, our freedom

A little money in the bank

Y'all can keep the change

Just keep the change

Y'all can keep the change
