Weapons and guns, are they really my rights?
Laws written a long time ago
No one could imagine the sight
Of so many dead on the floor
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
So what do you really have in mind for us now?
We know that you're not on our side
A few words of wisdom written down
Ain't enough to sustain us anymore
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
We can't take it no more
Some cannot live inside the law
Not much has changed here at all
I see the sun's really going down
This is not the Garden of Eden for sure
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
We can't take it here anymore
We can't take it no more
Laws written a long time ago
No one could imagine the sight
Of so many dead on the floor
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
So what do you really have in mind for us now?
We know that you're not on our side

Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?

Hey God, if you're still there
Would you please come down?
We can't take it here anymore
We can't take it no more

Orpheus descending
Mellencamp non ha mai conosciuto le mezze misure e non ha mai frequentato l'arte della mediazione, così nel primo singolo tratto da "Orpheus descending", "Hey God", va dritto al punto e prende per le corna un tema molto americano, ma che, con le dovute proporzioni, si può traslare ovunque: l'uso delle armi quale sinonimo di libertà, "Weapons and guns are they really my rights?/Laws written a long time ago/No one could imagine the sight/Of so many dead on the floor".
