When we were young, we pledged allegiance Every morning of our lives The classroom rang with children's voices Under teacher's watchful eyeWe learned about the world around us At our desks and at dinnertime Reminded of the starving children We cleaned our plates with guilty mindsAnd the stones in the road Shone like diamonds in the dust And then a voice called to us To make our way back homeWhen I was ten, my father held me On his shoulders above the crowd To see a train draped in mourning Pass slowly through our townHis widow kneeled with all their children At the sacred burial ground And the TV glowed that long hot summer With all the cities burning downAnd the stones in the road Flew out beneath our bicycle tires Worlds removed from all those fires As we raced each other homeAnd now we drink our coffee on the run We climb that ladder rung by rung We are the daughters and the sons And here's the line that's missingThe starving children have been replaced By souls out on the street We give a dollar when we pass And hope our eyes don't meetWe pencil in, we cancel out We crave the corner suite We kiss your ass, we make you hold We doctor the receiptAnd the stones in the road They fly out from beneath our wheels Another day, another deal Before we get back homeStones in the road Leave a mark from whence they came A thousand points of light or shame Baby, I don't know
