Songtexte 1990 - The Temptations

(Get up against the wall)
(You wanna mess me?)
(Ready, go!)
(I don′t wanna see nothing but asses and all those)
(I don't know why you′re messin' me)
(Move, man, come on)
(Come on now)
(I gotta gone here, I gotta gone)
(Get up against the wall!)
(Get up against the wall, man)
(Hey, man, you're messin′ all, this supposed to be America, man)
(I close ′em off, I close 'em off)
(Move, move)
(Hang on, check this here, man)
(Hey, man, be cool)
(We did nothing, it′s probably America)
(One, two, three, four, in line)
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three)

Well, we got trouble in the White House
Poverty in the ghetto, yeah
When will it end?
Nobody knows!

People are asking now
"How can you spend another dollar on the space race
With families at home starving right in front of your face?"
Where is your heart, America?

Thousand of jobless people walking the streets
With no food or place to sleep
What will become of them, yeah, America?

I, I heard some people saying they had a solution
"All we got to do is change the Constitution!"
What about air pollution, America?

Oh, America! Yeah
Don't get me wrong, I still love ya
In spite of all your troubles and woes
In my eyes you′re still the greatest of them all, ah

America! Hey, oh, nah
I ain't ashamed to say that I love ya
There ain′t another place on Earth I'd rather be, yeah, yeah, yeah

Amen, hey

Amen

Amen

Ha! We won all the battles there were to win
Pray that the war stay at an end
That's the people′s prayer
Listen to them, America! Ah

America! Hey
Don′t get me wrong, I still love ya
In spite of all your troubles and woes
In my eyes you're still the greatest of them all! Ah

America! Hey, oh, nah
I ain′t ashamed to say that I love ya
There ain't another place on Earth I′d rather be

Ha, America
Don't get me wrong, I still love ya
In spite of all your troubles and woes
In my eyes you′re still the greatest of them all! Ha, America
