Generation Away

If I was a summer I wanna be '69

I'd be chilling listening to Dylan

Holding up a peace sign

And if I was a prison I wanna be Folsom

Johnny Cash be rocking that black

Singing to the stripes

And kicking out all the lights

Hey what can I say

I hope they'd talk about us that way

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Than right here making history

Hey what can we do

Here we are it's me and you

So let's take all the pictures we can take

For the generation away

Come on

If I was an old car I wanna be a Mustang

American made with a white rag top

On a blue sky kind of day

And if I was a preacher I wanna be Dr King

Oh I know he's up there smiling down

Cause we all still have a dream

Hey what can I say

I hope they'd talk about us that way

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Than right here making history

Hey what can we do

Here we are it's me and you

So let's take all the pictures we can take

For the generation away

Let's make some memories while we can

Laugh and love don't miss your chance

Cause he still got the whole world in his hands

So baby let's dance

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Yeah I'm singing

Hey what can I say

I hope they talk about us that way

Raise your voice and have no fear

Let 'em know that you were here

Singing

Hey what can we do

Here we are it's me and you

So let's take all the pictures we can take

And let's make all the memories we can make

For the generation away

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

He's got the whole world in his hands

He's got the whole world in his hands

He's got the whole wide world right in his hands

So come on now everybody just dance

He's got the whole world in his hands

He's got the whole world in his hands

He's got the whole wide world right in his hands

So sing out loud and wave your hands

Got the whole word

Got the whole wide world

The whole wide world oh yeah

Now everybody in the party

Everybody in the place

Come on and put your hands up

Come on and put your hands up

Oh no oh oh yeah
