Get back to we we used to be in th good old USA
Having fun after chores are done---if you'd like to do a version of the songs let me know---love to hear it
Story behind the song
Just some thoughts on improving the country, closing the borders, and go back to isolationism (Woodrow Wilson style)
Lyrics
Get Beyond That (a protest song)
I’ve seen war and I’ve seen peace (Verse1)
I’ve seen troubles that won’t cease
I’ve seen children in the street
They don’t have enough to eat
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
I’ve seen gangs and I’ve seen drugs (Verse 2)
I’ve seen guns and I’ve seen thugs
We must take a stand as one
For our daughters and our sons
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
Let’s get beyond that
Let’s get beyond that
And save this land
And save this land
(Chorus 1)
Let’s get beyond our politics
From the cities to the sticks
Find some leaders that’s for us
Some one we can really trust
(Say) Or put them on a bus
And get beyond that
And get beyond that
I seen men who need a job (Verse 3)
And their dignity’s been robbed
I don’t wanna understand
Who sent our work to foreign lands
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
If you gonna say you care (Verse 4)
Check out what you use or wear
If it’s from some distant shore
Let’s not buy it any more
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
And save this land
And save this land
Chorus 2 (repeat to here at end)
I’m not judging right and wrong
We’ve just got to get along
Have some faith and you will see
We’ll believe in you and me
(Say) And that’s it basically
And get beyond that
And get beyond that
(Guitar Solo)
Now I hope you understand
That we’re all Americans
Yellow, red or black or white
Its not hard to see the light
Lets get beyond that
Lets get beyond that
So come out and lend a hand
We still rule in this our land
Its our freedom and our might
We have just begun to fight
We’ll get beyond that
We’ll get beyond that
We’ll get beyond that (Repeat 3 times to end/fade)
We’ll get beyond that
And save this land
And save this land
(Guitar Solo) first time thru
