Peaceful World (Live Acoustic - John Mellencamp

Come on baby take a ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

Let back to top on right be

On the peace monday

On the dead and sleep

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

People know this world is a wreck

We're sick and tired

Of being politically correct

If I see through it now

But I didn't at first

The hypocrites made it worse and worse

Lookin' down their noses

At what people say

These are just words and words are okay

It's what you do and not what you say

If you're not part of the future

Then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

Racism lives in the u s today

Better get hip to

What martin luther king had to say

I don't want my kids being

Brought up this way

Hatred to each other is not okay

Well I'm not a preacher just a singer son

But I can see more work to be done

It's what you do and not what you say

If you're not part of the future

Then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

Lay back the top and ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

The money's good and the work is okay

Looks like everything is rollin our way

'Til you gotta look the devil in the eye

You know that bastard's one big lie

So be careful with your heart and what you love

Make sure that it was sent from above

It's what you do and not what you say

If you're not part of the future

Then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world

Lay back the top and ride with me

I'm up from indiana down to tennessee

Everything is cool as can be

In a peaceful world
