Somewhere In America - Jackie DeShannon

While bankers, lawyers and brokers

Keep score for the buyers and sellers

Another deal is closing, reads the paper

What happens to the town?

Families move away

Trees are being torn down at will

What more do you need to know?

Rain forests are burnin'

South Pole is meltin'

We are responsible

We are responsible

Can anybody hear me

Somewhere, somewhere in America?

Watch out, look around, save your tears

The wildlife is just disappearin'

They may not see tomorrow, losing the shoreline

There’s so many questions

Man is very dangerous

Deceivin' the less fortunate

Hidin' undercover now

We sacrifice the livin'

Knowin' who’s stronger

We are responsible

We are responsible

Can anybody hear me

Somewhere, somewhere in America?

Freedom is threatened, we have not learned

Hatred’s devastation has left its scars

Integrity and honor are all but gone

Lost inside the shadows

Where is our compassion?

Is there anyone savin' trust?

Would you say you’ve played your part?

We should protect the oceans

A world of life below

We are responsible

We are responsible

Can anybody hear me

Somewhere, somewhere in America

Somewhere, somewhere in America

Somewhere in America?
