    Blinken, who while in Kyiv this week has pledged unwavering U.S. support as Russian has intensified attacks in Ukraine, joined band 19.99 on stage at Barman Dictat in the capital city. They played Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World", a rock anthem released in 1989 just before the fall of the Berlin Wal

      Lyrics
      There's colors on the street
      Red, white and blue
      People shufflin' their feet
      People sleepin' in their shoes
      But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
      There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
      Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
      So I try to forget it any way I can
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      I see a woman in the night
      With a baby in her hand
      There's an old street light (near a garbage can)
      Near a garbage can (near a garbage can)
      And now she put the kid away and she's gone to get a hit
      She hates her life and what she's done to it
      There's one more kid that'll never go to school
      Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      We got a thousand points of light
      For the homeless man
      We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand
      We got department stores and toilet paper
      Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
      Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
      Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
      Keep on rockin' in the free world
