Karaoké Check It Out John Mellencamp

A million young poets screaming out their words to a world full of people just living to be heard

Future generations riding on the highways that we built

I hope they have a better understanding

Check it out

Going to work on Monday

Check it out

Got yourself a family

Check it out

All utility bills have been paid

You can't tell your best buddy that you love him

So check it out

Where does our time go

Check it out

Got a brand new house in escrow

Check it out

Sleeping with your back to your loved one

This is all that we've learned about happiness

Check it out

Forgot to say hello to my neighbors

Check it out

Sometimes I question my own behavior

Check it out

Talking about the girls that we've seen on the sly

Just to tell our souls we're still the young lions

So check it out

Getting too drunk on Saturdays

Check it out

Playing football with kids on Sundays

Check it out

Soaring with the eagles all week long

And this is all that we've learned about living

This is all that we've learned about living

Check it out

Check it out

Check it out

So check it out

A million young poets screaming out their words

Maybe someday those words will be heard

By future generations riding highways that we built

Maybe they have a better understanding

Check it out

Hope they have a better understanding

Check it out

Maybe they'll have a better understanding

Check it out

Maybe they'll have a better understanding

Check it out

Hope they have a better understanding

So check it out

Check it out

Check it out

Check it out

Check it out
