    What an awesome song, performance and event in general! A song that, while peppered with sarcasm, reminds us that if we did something about all the shit expressed in the verses, we could truly keep rocking in a better world! Seeing the two Gord's (Downie and Lightfoot) who have both left us, brings a tear to this proud Canadian's eyes.

    There's colors on the street
    Red, white and blue
    People shufflin' their feet
    People sleepin' in their shoes
    But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
    There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
    Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
    So I try to forget it any way I can
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    I see a woman in the night
    With a baby in her hand
    There's an old street light (near a garbage can)
    Near a garbage can (near a garbage can)
    And now she put the kid away and she's gone to get a hit
    She hates her life and what she's done to it
    There's one more kid that'll never go to school
    Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    We got a thousand points of light
    For the homeless man
    We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand
    We got department stores and toilet paper
    Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
    Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
    Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
