I was raised in America when streets were safe and children learned to pray, learned to pray,
Things have changed and it's not the same: the hand of God that we felt has gone away, gone away.
Let's get upset, and turn this country upside down,
Let's get upset,
With Jesus' help we'll turn this land around
We used to blush at vulgarity; now we watch while the TV plays all night, plays all night,
Used to stand with our backbones strong, now the drugs turn our courage into fright, it's not right.
Let's get upset, and turn this country upside down,
Let's get upset,
With Jesus' help we'll turn this land around
If we, as Christians, pray, the Lord will clear the way,
We are examples to the rest,
And if we place God first he will heal all our hurts,
And we will see our country blessed, yeah.
Let's get upset and turn this country upside down,
Let's get upset,
With Jesus' help we'll turn this land around.
Let's get upset, (got to get upset, yeah)
Let's get upset,
Let's get upset,
Let's get upset,
Let's get upset,
Let's get upset.
