I was walkin to the corner drug storeand what should 
I happen to seethere were picket linesand the people were a shoutin'"
Down with democracy"as 
I strolled on by someone grabbed my arm and said"buddy where do you stand"?
I said "
I stand wherever 
I choose my friendand you best let go of my hand"as 
I walked away on a sunny day, 
I swear I&
Acirc; heard him scream"you know you're leanin' on my dream""
Hey man you're leanin on my dream"
Got home and turned on the tv setand sat me down to eatand a man came ontalkin' bout the coppersthey were blockin' off another street
Seems some folks was raisin' cainand a riot had broke outand they flashed the camera on the guy who had stopped me
I watched him runnin' aboutas the cops were draggin him away
I heard on of 'em scream"you know you're leanin' on my dream""these kids are leanin' on my dream"oh yeahwell 
I got up and turned off the tv setand to tell you 
I was feelin' meanan 
I thought a whiletryin to make some senseout of everything that 
I have seen
I was addin' the score when there's a knock on the doorwas a letter addressed to me
It read "greetings from the president, united states"
I fell down on my knees
The next day 
I was on the picket lineand 
Lord you should have heard me scream"you know you're leanin' on my dream""hey man you're leanin' on my dream"
