Our Country Lyrics - On The Rural Route 7609 - John Mellencamp

Well I can stand beside 

Ideals I think are right 

And I can stand beside 

The idea to stand and fight 

I do believe 

There's a dream for everyone 

This is our country 

There's room enough here 

For science to live 

And there's room enough here 

For religion to forgive 

And try to understand 

All the people of this land 

This is our country

From the east coast 

To the west coast 

Down the Dixie Highway 

Back home 

This is our country 

That poverty could be 

Just another ugly thing 

And bigotry would be 

Seen only as obscene 

And the ones that run this land 

Help the poor and common man 

This is our country 

From the east coast 

To the west coast 

Down the Dixie Highway 

Back home 

This is our country 

Photos 

The dream is still alive 

Some day it will come true 

And this country it belongs 

To folks like me and you 

So let the voice of freedom 

Sing out through this land 

This is our country 

From the east coast 

To the west coast 

Down the Dixie Highway 

Back home 

This is our country 

From the east coast 

To the west coast 

Down the Dixie Highway 

Back home 

This is our country
