Lyrics to You've Got To Stand For Something
I've seen the Rolling StonesForgot about Johnny RottenSaw the Who back in '69Saw Bobby SealTalkin' to the PanthersSayin' just what he had on his mindI saw Marlon BrandoOn a motorcycleHe was actin' out rebellionI saw Rocky StalloneIn an X-rated movieCalled the Italian StallionI've seen lots of thingsBut I have not seen a lot of other thingsCHORUS (But I know) You've got to stand for something Or you're gonna fall for anything You've gotta stand right up for somethin' Or you're gonna fall....for anythingI saw Nikita KrushchevKissin' Fidel CastroSaw a man walkin' on the moonI saw Miss AmericaIn a girly magazineI bet you saw that tooI've seen the London BridgeIn the middle of a desertSeen 33 years go byI know the American peoplePaid a high price for justiceAnd I don't know whyNobody seems to know whyI know a lot of thingsBut I don't know a lot of other things...Yeah Yeah YeahCHORUSWell I've been to Harlem CountyAnd I've seen Paris, TexasAnd I've spent some time in RomeI know a lot of funny peopleIn a lot of funny placesBut the Midwest is my homeWe've got to start respectin' this worldOr it's gonna turn around and bite off our faceCHORUSRepeat
