歌曲歌詞
We heard the fireworks
Rushed out to watch the sky
Happy go lucky fourth of July
How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river
When the flood water pours from the mouth
How can you be a Christian
How can you be a Jew
How can you be a Muslim a Buddhist a Hindu
How can you
Weak as the winter sun we enter life on earth
Names and religion comes just after date of birth
Then everybody gets a tongue to speak
And everyone hears an inner voice
A day at the end of the week to wonder and rejoice
If the answer is infinite light
Why do we sleep in the dark
How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river
When the flood water pours from the mouth
How can you tattoo your body
Why do you cover your head
How can you eat from a rice bowl
The holy man only breaks bread
We watched the fireworks 'til they were fireflies
Followed a path of stars over the endless skies
How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river
When the flood water pours from the mouth from the mouth
I've been given all I wanted
Only three generations off the boat
I've harvested and I've planted
I'm wearing my father's old coat
