You're not too happy, I see
Hope it's not with me
I love you the best that I can
So just hold out your hand
And love me

The world's not right today
When all the people say
"Let's watch the war on TV"
Don't listen to me, no (?)

Better quit that pushing and shoving me down
Help your brother find his self
Get down, start kissing the ground
If you're (?) today
You can have a say

You're not too proud I see
What's it got to do with me?
When we stand on our own
Just trying to find you a home
Where I can love you

The country's not bright today
When all the politicians say
"It's time to hang the (?) out to dry"
And the suckers (in the Republican can have their way with her?)
It's a cryin shame

You better quit that pushing and shoving me down
Help your sister find herself
Get down, start kissing the ground
If you're (?) today
You might have a say
Get up, stand up

Better quit that pushing and shoving me down
Help your family find (themselves/theirselves?)
Get down, start kissing the ground
If you're (?) today
Ain't it time you stood up?

Better quit your pushing and shoving me down
Help your family find (themselves/theirselves?)
Get down, start kissing the ground
If you're (?) today
Be careful with what you say
