[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e29491-john_mellencamp~peaceful_world__lyrics.html ]
Come on baby take a ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be in a peaceful world

People know this world is a wreck
Were sick and tired of being politically correct
I see through it now but I didnt at first
The hipocrites made it worse and worse
Lookin down their noses at what people say
These are just words and words are okay
Its what you do and not what you say
If youre not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be in a peaceful world

Hey yeah
Hey yeah
Hey yeah

Racism lives in the u.s.a.
Get hip to what martin luther did have to say
I dont want my kids being brought up this way
Hatred to each other is not okay
Well Im not a preacher just a singer son
I can see more work to be done
Its what you do and not what you say
If youre not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be in a peaceful world

Lay back the top and ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

The moneys good and the works ok
Looks like everything is rolling our way
Til you gotta look the devil in the eye
You know that bastards one big lie
So be careful with your heart and what you love
Make sure that it was sent from above
Its what you do and not what you say
If youre not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be in a peaceful world

Lay back the top and ride with me
Im up from indiana down to tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

Hey yeah
Hey yeah
Hey yeah
Hey yeah
Hey yeah
