[Verse 1]
C
More tough news on the late night TV
C
News lady tells me that it's cold outside
C
Man gets his carjacked, graveyard gets ransacked
C
Everybody knows that there ain't no place to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Late night drive-by, there's blood on the sidewalk
F G
Rain's gonna wash out that stain someday
Am Em
That stupid kid should have known this ain't no cakewalk
F G
You can't just wear your bandana that way
[Chorus]
F G
Ain't that freedom for you
C Am F
Ain't that freedom for you
G C F C G
Freedom American style
[Verse 1]
C
Hot car rollin' down an empty highway
C
The keys were in it man it serves the owner right
C
The youg girl attacked in the woods off the parkway
C
She should have known not to jog alone at night
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Drugs rule downtown, gangs rule midtown
F G
You're on your own when they both collide
Am Em
I keep my doors locked with bars on my window
F G
Got an alarm in my car, keep my kids inside
[Chorus]
F G
Ain't that freedom for you
C Am F
Ain't that freedom for you

Freedom American style

I keep my arms around whatever I've got

It's an alright world but you know I watch myself

But I try to remember so is everybody else
