Stars Across this Country |
||
| 1 | I walked back | |
| 2 | Along the railroad tracks | |
| 3 | From the midnight shift I'd been working | |
| 4 | I looked around | |
| 5 | At the sleeping town | |
| 6 | Like the river that slips away | |
| 7 | Autumn breeze | |
| 8 | In the moonlit trees | |
| 9 | And the highway softly humming | |
| 10 | I heard freedom ring | |
| 11 |
Like stars across this country |
|
| 12 | I've seen the signs | |
| 13 | In the march of time | |
| 14 | Across miles of plains and mountains | |
| 15 | I've held desert sand | |
| 16 | In my empty hands | |
| 17 | And I've seen heroes rise and fall and rise again | |
| 18 | And I saw | |
| 19 | Dawn come up | |
| 20 | Like flames across the meadow | |
| 21 | I heard freedom ring | |
| 22 |
Like stars across this country |
|
| 23 | Shining on down | |
| 24 | Shining down on me | |
| 25 | Shining on down | |
| 26 | Shining down on me | |
| 27 | Sometimes are good | |
| 28 | Sometimes are bad | |
| 29 | Sometimes I think I'm dreaming | |
| 30 | But I hear freedom ring | |
| 31 | Like stars across this country | |
| 32 |
And it's my home |
|
| 33 | Annie came down | |
| 34 | And put the coffee on | |
| 35 | And I stood outside the window staring | |
| 36 | The kids were home | |
| 37 | My folks had come around | |
| 38 | And my great-aunt was out from Ohio | |
| 39 | And I saw time suspended | |
| 40 | In the echo | |
| 41 | Of their laughter | |
| 42 | I heard freedom ring | |
| 43 |
Like stars across this country |
|
| 44 | Shining on down | |
| 45 | Shining down on me | |
| 46 | Shining on down | |
| 47 | Shining down on me | |
| 48 | Sometimes are good | |
| 49 | Sometimes are bad | |
| 50 | Sometimes I think I'm dreaming | |
| 51 | But I hear freedom ring | |
| 52 | Like stars across this country | |
| 53 |
And it's my home |
|
