Peaceful World Lyrics - John Mellencamp

Come on baby take a ride with me 

I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee 

Everything is cool as can be 

In a peaceful world 

People know this world is a wreck 

We're sick and tired of being politically correct 

If I see through it now but I didn't at first 

The hypocrites made it worse and worse 

Lookin' down their noses at what people say 

These are just words and words are okay 

It's what you do and not what you say 

If you're not part of the future then get out of the way 

Come on baby take a ride with me 

I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee 

Everything is cool as can be 

In a peaceful world

Racism lives in the U.S. today 

Better get hip to what Martin Luther King had to say 

I don't want my kids being brought up this way 

Hatred to each other is not okay 

Well I'm not a preacher just a singer son 

But I can see more work to be done 

It's what you do and not what you say 

If you're not part of the future then get out of the way 

Come on baby take a ride with me 

I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee 

Everything is cool as can be 

In a peaceful world 

The money's good and the work is okay 

Looks like everything is rollin our way 

'Til you gotta look the devil in the eye 

You know that bastard's one big lie 

Photos 

So be careful with your heart and what you love 

Make sure that it was sent from above 

It's what you do and not what you say 

If you're not part of the future then get out of the way 

Come on baby take a ride with me 

I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee 

Everything is cool as can be 

In a peaceful world 

Lay back the top and ride with me 

I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee 

Everything is cool as can be 

In a peaceful world 

Hey yeah 

Hey yeah 

Hey yeah 

Hey yeah...
