Kevin takes a moment to reflect on current protests and dips into the history of REO Speedwagon with a new acoustic version of "Golden Country," a song that is sadly still too current.

Golden country your face is so red
With all of your money your poor can be fed
You strut around and you flirt with disaster
Never really carin’ just what comes after
Well your blacks are dyin’ but your back is still turned
And your freaks are cryin’ but your back is still turned
You better stop your hidin’ or your country will burn
The time has come for you my friend
To all this ugliness we must put an end
Before we leave we must make a stand

-REO Speedwagon, R.E.O/T.W.O (1972)
