American Dream - Will Hoge[00:00:02]

This used to be a one horse town[00:00:09]

But the pony went away[00:00:11]

Ended up in China cause[00:00:15]

They make it cheaper there they say[00:00:19]

The store fronts all are empty[00:00:22]

And the factory is dead[00:00:26]

And these streets I used to walk on[00:00:31]

Well now they’re just my bed[00:00:35]

And I’m going down down down[00:00:39]

I’m going down[00:00:46]

Did a couple years of college[00:00:52]

But I just couldn’t make it stick[00:00:54]

Had to come back here and help mamma[00:00:59]

Because daddy left when she got sick[00:01:01]

She worked very day for nothing[00:01:06]

Until she turned 62[00:01:09]

And the same day that I buried her[00:01:14]

The bank foreclosed on her house too[00:01:18]

That’s my American dream[00:01:24]

And I’ve been all that I can be[00:01:27]

With nothing left to lose at all[00:01:30]

I guess I’m free[00:01:34]

That’s my American dream dream dream[00:01:37]

That’s my American dream[00:01:44]

Now I stand here at this off ramp[00:01:50]

And smile as best I can[00:01:53]

With a sign that says Jesus loves you[00:01:56]

But it’s hard to think he gives a damn[00:01:59]

When they roll down their windows[00:02:04]

And put some spare change in my hand[00:02:07]

But I’d give it all right back[00:02:12]

To just be looked at like a man[00:02:15]

And I’m going down down down[00:02:20]

I’m going down[00:02:28]

When it’s cold I try the mission[00:02:48]

On nights like this I sleep outside[00:02:51]

Under a bridge beside the interstate[00:02:54]

Where I can hear those trucks roll by[00:02:58]

And imagine I’m inside one[00:03:02]

Just rolling down the road[00:03:05]

But I wake up just to realise[00:03:11]

That this place is now my home[00:03:14]

That’s my American dream[00:03:20]

And I’ve been all that I can be[00:03:23]

With nothing left to lose at all[00:03:27]

I guess I’m free[00:03:30]

That’s my American dream[00:03:35]

It disappeared in front of me[00:03:38]

With nothing left to lose at all[00:03:41]

I guess I’m free[00:03:44]

That’s my American dream dream dream[00:03:48]

It’s my American dream[00:03:55]
