Dropkick Murphys - New American Way Lyrics

Now each day when I wake up and I set my best foot forward,
I'll make an effort to be all that I can be.
And I take a look around me and I wonder how things change so much,
in the few short years since I was a young boy.

LET'S GO!

Do you know what we're fighting for?
I know in an instant I could lose everything I'm working toward.

chorus
I know I'll win my battles, though I fear we'll lose the war
to the new American way.

The morals of this nation's youth have long gone astray.
Led by tolerance, indifference, in this kinder, gentler way.
That has corrupted and destroyed, so many of our boys and girls.
Oh lord I start to wonder, will it ever come around?
