Another sun rising on the land of the free
Another black body hanging from a tree
And the boys in blue don't have much to say
Just keep the records blank and the cameras away

They killed another woman at her own address
They killed the man on the corner for selling cigarettes
Tamir was twelve when they put him in the ground
And the gun he was holding couldn't even make a sound

You better shut your mouth, you better get in line
You're gonna pay the price if you speak your mind
Cause the lawman's gonna put you in your grave
That's the American way

If you don't end up face down in the dirt
They'll put you in chains and then put you to work
Get caught doing pot and they'll give you hard time
While the criminals own the bars you're behind

You better shut your mouth, you better get in line
You're gonna pay the price if you speak your mind
Cause the lawman's gonna put you in your grave
That's the American way

You better shut your mouth, you better get in line
You gonna pay the price if you speak your mind
You can say I'm young, you can say I'm wrong
You can say I wasted my time with this song
But they'll kill you with your hands raised above your head
They'll kill you for sleeping in your own damn bed
Yeah the lawman's gonna put you in your grave
That's the American way
