Welcome to the Future - Brad Paisley

When I was ten years old

I remember thinkin' how cool

It would be

When we were goin' on an eight hour drive

If I could just watch T V

And I'd have given anything

To have my own PacMan game at home

I used to have to get a ride

Down to the arcade;

Now I've got it on my phone

He-e-ey

Glory glory hallelujah

Welcome to the future

My grandpa was in World War II

He fought against the Japanese

He wrote a hundred letters

To my grandma;

Mailed em from his base

In the Philippines

I wish they could see this now

Where they say this change can go

Cause I was on a video chat this morning

With a company in Tokyo

He-e-ey

Everyday is a revolution

Welcome to the future

He-e-ey

Look around it's all so clear

He-e-ey

Wherever we would go and well we

He-e-ey

So many things I never thought I'd see

Happening right in front of me

I had a friend in school

Running-back on a football team

They burned a cross in his front yard

For asking out the home-coming queen

I thought about him today

Everybody who's seen what he's seen

From a woman on a bus

To a man with a dream

He-e-ey

Wake up Martin Luther

Welcome to the future

He-e-ey

Glory glory hallelujah

Welcome to the future
