Lyrics
Everybody's got the right to be happy
Don't be mad, life's not as bad as it seems
If you keep your goal in sight
You can climb to any height
Everybody's got the right to their dreams
Everybody's got the right to be different
(If you wanna be different)
Even though at times they go to extremes
(Go to extremes!)
Anybody can prevail
Everybody's free to fail
No one can be put in jail for their dreams
Free country!
Means that you've got the choice
Be a scholar
Make a dollar
Free country!
Means that you get a voice!
Scream and holler
Grab 'em by the collar!
Free country!
Means you get to connect
(That's it!)
Means a right to expect
That you'll have an effect
That you're gonna connect
Connect!
Connect!
Connect!
Everybody's got the right to some sunshine
Not the sun, but maybe one of its beams
(One of its beams)
Rich man, poor man, black or white
Everybody gets a bite
Everybody just hold tight to your dreams!
Everybody's got the right
To their dreams!
