For America (LP版) - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)
Written by：Jackson Browne
As if I really didn't understand

That I was just another part of their plan
I went off looking for the promise
Believing in the motherland

And from the comfort of a dreamer's bed

And the safety of my own head
I went on speaking of the future
While other people fought and bled

The kid I was when I first left home
Was looking for his freedom and a life of his own
But the freedom that he found wasn't quite as sweet
When the truth was known

I have prayed for America

I was made for America

It's in my blood and in my bones

By the dawn's early light

By all I know is right

We're going to reap what we have sown

As if freedom was a question of might

As if loyalty was black and white

You hear people say it all the time
My country wrong or right

I want to know what that's got to do

With what it takes to find out what's true

With everyone from the president on down
Trying to keep it from you

The thing I wonder about the dads and moms
Who send their sons to the vietnams
Will they really think their way of life
Has been protected as the next war comes

I have prayed for America

I was made for America

Her shining dream plays in my mind

By the rockets red glare

A generation's blank stare
We better wake her up this time

The kid I was when I first left home
Was looking for his freedom and a life of his own
But the freedom that he found wasn't quite as sweet

When the truth was known

I have prayed for America

I was made for America

I can't let go till she comes around

Until the land of the free

Is awake and can see

And until her conscience has been found
