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

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
