Before you tell me how loud I can play my music
Before you tell me the way I should raise my kids
Before you try to tell me what to say
You might wanna think about it, yeah
Before you turn my family farm into a strip-mall
Before you move another factory overseas
Before you go giving my job away
You might wanna think about it, yeah
Think about this land that we live in
All the rights we've been given
And the people who died to make us free

Maybe you should start thinking
About the fights you'll be picking
And the butt-kicking you'll get from me
You might wanna think about it, yeah

Before you try to take away my ten commandments
Before you try to tell me when and where to pray
Before you go messing with my faith
You might wanna think about it, yeah
Think about the choice that you're making
And the stance that you're taking
Before you come rolling down my street

Maybe you should start thinking
About the fight you'll be picking
And the butt-kicking you’ll get from me
The ass-whipping you’ll get from me
Before you go and try to take away my freedom
Before you go and try to take my voice away
Before you go make a big mistake
You might wanna think about it
You might wanna think about it
You might want to
You might want to
You might want to think about it
You might want to
Brother, you need to
You might wanna thinking about it
