I believe that there's a right
And I believe that there's a wrong
That North and South, black and white
Can somehow get along
What say you, what say you

I believe there's a basic good
In the heart of every man
And I'm not gonna criticize
What I can't understand
What say you, what say you

I'm not afraid to say what's on my mind
To take a stand, to draw the line
To speak my heart and bare my soul
I don't like lies, I'd rather know the truth
Hey, what say you, what say you

Well, I'm not ashamed of where I come from
With this blue collar on my shirt
And I don't look for handouts
'Cause I'm not afraid of work
What say you, yeah, what say you

Man, I don't talk no religion
And I ain't gonna wave that flag
But I love God and America
And I'd fight for what I have
What say you, yeah, what say you

I know I'm not always right
I don't think I'm better than you
I don't have all the answers
But I'll share my point of view
What say you

I'm not afraid to say what's on my mind
Take a stand and draw that line
To speak my heart and bare my soul
I don't like lies, I'd rather know the truth

So what say you, what say you
What say you
And you and you and you and you
What say you
