Patriot's Dreams

Arlo Guthrie
"Living now, here but for fortune
placed by faith's mysterious schemes
Who'd believe that we're the ones asked
to try to rekindle the Patriot's Dreams

Arise sweet destiny time runs short
all of your patience has heard their retort,
hear us now, for alone we can't seem
to try to rekindle the Patriot's Dreams

Can you hear the words being whispered
all along the American stream,
tyrants freed and the just are imprisoned
Try to rekindle the Patriot's Dreams
But perhaps too much is being asked of too few,
you and your children with nothing to do,
hear us now, for alone we can't seem
to try to rekindle the Patriot's Dreams."
