Leanin on My Dream - Bob Seger

I was walkin to the corner d**g storeand what should
I happen to seethere were picket linesand the people were a shoutin'
Down with democracyas
I strolled on by someone grabbed my arm and saidbuddy where do you stand
I said
I stand wherever
I choose my friendand you best let go of my handas
I walked away on a sunny day
I swear I
Acirc heard him screamyou 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 screamyou know you're leanin' on my dreamthese kids are leanin' on my dreamoh 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 screamyou know you're leanin' on my dreamhey man you're leanin' on my dream
