Lyrics
Did you hear what I heard?
Did you see what I saw?
Do you know what I mean?
Can you hear me at all?
Do you feel it in your bones?
Is it hanging in the air?
Do you feel it in the streets of your hometown when you?re back there?
Oh young, young and restless nation
Oh young, young and reckless nation
Now if you do not learn to speak for yourself
You will be spoken for, by somebody else
And if you do not put your foot down where you stand
You will be molded in somebody else?s hand
It?s just a dream, he said
But I?ve got a dream
It?s just a dream, he said
But I?ve got a dream, I?ve got a dream
Did you hear what I heard?
Did you see what I saw?
Do you know what I mean?
Can you hear me at all?
Do you feel it in your bones?
Is it hanging in the air?
Do you feel it in the streets of your hometown when you?re back there?
Oh young, young and restless nation
Oh young, young and reckless nation
