You`ve Got To Stand For Somethin` — текст песни (John Mellencamp)





Written by: John Mellencamp

I`ve seen the Rolling Stones
Forgot about Johnny Rotten
Saw the Who back in `69
Saw Bobby Seal
Talkin` to the Panthers
Sayin` just what he had on his mind
I saw Marlon Brando
On a motorcycle
He was actin` out rebellion
I saw Rocky Stallone
In an X-rated movie
Called the Italian Stallion
I`ve seen lots of things
But I have not seen a lot of other things

CHORUS
(But I know)
You`ve got to stand for something
Or you`re gonna fall for anything
You`ve gotta stand right up for somethin`
Or you`re gonna fall....for anything

I saw Nikita Krushchev
Kissin` Fidel Castro
Saw a man walkin` on the moon
I saw Miss America
In a girly magazine
I bet you saw that too

I`ve seen the London Bridge
In the middle of a desert
Seen 33 years go by
I know the American people
Paid a high price for justice
And I don`t know why
Nobody seems to know why
I know a lot of things
But I don`t know a lot of other things...Yeah Yeah Yeah

CHORUS

Well I`ve been to Harlem County
And I`ve seen Paris, Texas
And I`ve spent some time in Rome
I know a lot of funny people
In a lot of funny places
But the Midwest is my home
We`ve got to start respectin` this world
Or it`s gonna turn around and bite off our face

CHORUS
Repeat
