John Mellencamp - Crazy Island lyrics

Hey Hey America You're some kind of crazy island You're a place where dreams can grow And there's history in your mansions Good fortune in your plantings You're well respected we all know Hey Hey America Let's check your children And see what they might know Hey Hey America With your salesmanship and your salaries And your strip malls a growin' And your handguns and your heresies Don't hold no responsibility In this land of easy millions Hey Hey America It's so thrillin' to see you grow You're some kind of crazy island You're some kind of crazy island Well I prefer a sunny day I just thought maybe I'd live a little bit longer that way I don't think we should look the same Or talk the same Yeah I think it's a shame And Hey Hey America Across the new horizon Are you sure that's the way we should go 'Cause I don't know Maybe it's too late for all that And Hey Hey America You're wrapped up in your red, white and blue Hey Hey America Wrapped up in yourself and your red, white and blue Hey Hey America You're some kind of crazy island You're some kind of crazy island Hey Hey America You're some kind of crazy island You're a place where dreams can grow And there's history in your mansions Hey Hey America You're some kind of crazy island Some kind of crazy island
