Corrosion of Conformity - Long Whip/Big America lyrics

rate me

Saw the news today, some D.C. suit trying to break away,

said he lost another million

just another old man trying to pass the buck with his dirty hand

good thing he knows his bible

Stick his ass in hell, even better in in this tiny cell

make him understand the meaning

of these words they try to preach just to keep them out of the nation's reach

I guess it's all for the better

Take it all away

take me

won't you take me far away

HEY HEY HEY what's that game you play

will it make me richer?

cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time

maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

now I was barely 21 laying in a ditch with a loaded gun

so I gave my heart away

but I got it back today in a velvet box stamped USA

now all the neighbors call me hero. hero.

Going to lose my mind so I buckled down and did some crime

but it wasn't what they taught me

hit the road in high pursuit now I'm on the run just like a suit

didn't know it was this easy

Take it all away

take me

won't you take me far away

HEY HEY HEY what's that game you play

will it make me a poor man?

cause I got an extra dime and I lose it every time

maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

HEY HEY HEY what's that game you play

will it make me richer?

cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time

maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

No more, no more

see I can't find the time to crawl across the line

but I can't stay here...

No more, no more

see I can't find the time to crawl across the line

but I can't stay here till I die
