Peaceful World Lyrics


John Mellencamp Peaceful World


Heya, heya, heya, heya, heya, heya

[John Mellencamp]
Come on baby take a ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee

[John Mellencamp & India Aire]
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

[John Mellencamp]
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 hypocrits 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

[John Mellencamp & India Aire]
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

heya, heya, heya

[India Aire]
Racism lives in the U.S.A
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

[John Mellencamp]
Well I'm not a preacher just a singer son
I can see more work to be done
It's what you do and not what you say

[John Mellencamp & India Aire]
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

[John Mellencamp]
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 the past is one big lie

[India Aire]
So be careful with your heart and what you love
Make sure that it was sent from above

[John Mellencamp]
It's what you do and not what you say

[John Mellencamp & India Aire]
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

Heya, heya, heya, heya, heya ETC.
