What's Come Over This World lyrics

What's become of this nation

And the songs that they sing?

Everybody's protestin'

What's it all gonna bring?

We sang "The Star-Spangled Banner"

Forever in peace may it wave

But now some rock 'n' roll singer

Is knockin' the home of the brave

Oh, what's come over this world?

What's come over this world?

I've thought it over and I can't get over

What's come over this world?

There's an army of cowards

See them marchin' in line

While the country's in danger

They just carry a sign

Look at them burnin' their draft cards

And refusin' to fight

While they talk about freedom

They're dimmin' Liberty's light

Oh, what's come over this world?

What's come over this world?

I've thought it over and I can't get over

What's come over this world?

My brother fought in Korea

My daddy in World War II

Now there's a war in Vietnam

And there's a job we must do

"What can you do for your country?"

His words were written in blood

Those who forgot what he died for

Are draggin' the flag through the mud

Tell me, tell me

What's come over this world?

Tell me, tell me, tell me

What's come over this world?

I've thought it over and I can't get over

What's come over this world?
