Lyrics
dear Ben
we need your pen again
dear Ben
O we've lost our way
our fate at hand
betrayal by our countrymen
faceless corporate enterprise
their tyranny is just the same
chorus
in We the People
we believe
blessed with freedom
we receive
our home and our strength
lies in sovereignty
Ben our land is under siege
if only you could see
dear Ben
always our champion
dear Ben
O how times have changed
our foe we fight
pirates of our Bill of Rights
selling franchised freedom now
in shameless hypocrisy
chorus
interlude
I love Liberty
I love Liberty
piano solo
dear Ben
a word for Everyman
dear Ben
O what would you say
community
one nation meant to be
cultures thrive in harmony
all Americans every day
chorus
tag
I love Liberty
I love Liberty
I love Liberty
I love Liberty
