Faces of America - Dan Fogelberg[00:00:00]

Written by：D. Fogelberg[00:00:01]

There was a time a simpler time[00:00:25]

When a man could be sure of where he stood[00:00:31]

I used to work at the yard working honest and hard[00:00:37]

The hours were long but the pay was oh so good[00:00:43]

I had a family and friends oh so many friends[00:00:49]

We'd drive to the lake on holidays[00:00:56]

Back then it wasn't so dear for a sandwich or beer[00:01:02]

At night I still dream I can see their faces[00:01:08]

Certain things that you depend upon[00:01:15]

There are places that you know[00:01:21]

And the faces of America[00:01:27]

Oh where do they go where did they go[00:01:30]

I was born on a farm a mid western farm[00:01:48]

I rode on the tractor with my dad[00:01:54]

And though we never had much it was always enough[00:02:00]

And we made the best with what we had[00:02:06]

But then came four years of drought and the bottom dropped out[00:02:12]

My father was broken like the rest[00:02:19]

And I can still see his hands signing over his lands[00:02:25]

And the bankers grow fat on the flesh of the dispossessed[00:02:31]

Certain things that you depend upon[00:02:38]

There are places I can go I sift the ashes of America[00:02:44]

For someplace I used to know[00:02:53]

Someplace I used to know[00:02:55]

Someplace I used to know[00:02:56]

Someplace I used to know[00:02:58]

Someplace I used to know[00:02:59]

There was a time a simpler time[00:03:26]

When a man could be sure of where he stood[00:03:32]

I used to work at the yard working honest and hard[00:03:38]

The hours were long but the pay was oh so good[00:03:45]

Certain things that you depend upon I used to think were guaranteed[00:03:51]

Like the right of every man to work and feed his family[00:04:03]

And feed his family[00:04:10]

And the faces of America seem so distant and estranged[00:04:13]

Have their eyes become too blind to see[00:04:25]

How much their hearts have changed[00:04:28]

How much their hearts have changed[00:04:30]

How much their hearts have changed[00:04:32]

How much their hearts have changed[00:04:33]

How much their hearts have changed[00:04:34]
