Kidnap America Lyrics

I got plan; yeah, a plot's what I got

To help this country rise again

All a' the haves

Join the have-nots

And strip our fears off while we can

[Chorus; C.W. only]

We've gotta kidnap America

Hold it for ransom

Put a price on our own head

And we won't give back America

'Til ev'ry one of us

Start payin' up, stop playin' dead

Hold up your head

You got it up?

Doomsday's been comin' for a hundred years

But it's not here yet

An' it ain't a-gonna come

Unless we drown in our own tears

[Chorus; the other singers]

We've gotta kidnap America

Hold it for ransom

Put a price on our own head

And we won't give back America

'Til ev'ry one of us

Start payin' up, stop playin' dead

Stand up, Americans!

We are the people!C.W. McCall - Kidnap America - http://motolyrics.com/cw-mccall/kidnap-america-lyrics.html

And the shirt's bein' stripped right off of our backs

We've let it happen

And we've gotta stop it

Before the spirit of sweet Liberty cracks

You guys in office!

You better listen!

We're sick an' tired of gettin' took

This ain't no crap game!

This is our future!

So run this country by the book

Pay up with courage!

Don't die for terror

We got the guts; we're the home of the brave

Well the home may be crumblin'

But not the foundation

It's still as strong as the day it was laid

[Chorus; the other singers]

We've gotta kidnap America

Hold it for ransom

Put a price on our own head

And we won't give back America

'Til ev'ry one of us

Start payin' up, stop playin' dead

I wanna thank ya

For your time
