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 givin' 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 thinkin'
About the fights you'll be pickin'
And the butt-kickin' 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 messin' with my faith
You might wanna think about it, yeah
Think about the choice that you're makin'
And the stance that you're takin'
Before you come rollin' down my street
Maybe you should start thinkin'
About the fight you'll be pickin'
And the butt-kickin' you'll get from me
The ass-whippin' 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
