Making The Road Lyrics

by Ryan Harvey

As NAFTA was passed we rose with the sun
The old and the young had to pick up the gun
We put them down as soon as the fighting was done
We're making the road as we go

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e59961-ryan_harvey~making_the_road__lyrics.html ]
[Chorus:]
Walking by asking, we're making the road
Reaping the seeds that our ancestors sowed
A global revolt, set to explode
We're making the road as we go

Govern by obeying, we're opening ears
Trying what's been tried for hundreds of years
Our hopes for a new world have beaten our fears
We're making the road as we go

[Chorus]

We're telling out story in books and in song
How we held back the giant and proved history wrong
A people united just can't be undone
We're making the road as we go

[Chorus]

The past makes the present, but all that depends
On who's got the power and who's got the pen
We're writing our future with words as our weapon
We're making the road as we go
