HEART - Dear Old America lyrics

rate me

Standing in line on the depot floorTaking my time getting through the doorDaddy said "Go!" and mama just criedSister said "Devil's on the other side"Hurricane blowing, water gets highCan't turn around or I'll drown in liesWhen I get back I'm gonna own this townShine that medal and wear that crownFall on my knees and kiss the groundDear old AmericaRun run rabbit save your rabbit skinJump right back in your hole againBullets they cry whispering droneFire in the sky God's on the phoneWhen I get home I'm gonna shove my doubtsDream my dreams and shut my mouthNobody knows what this is all aboutDear old AmericaWe don't beg and we don't runWe don't lose, we don't overcomePurple mountain majesty sliding to a broken seaDaddy he swear and mama she cry"My sweet baby she's bound to die"When I get back I'm gonna feel just fineOne more day I'm gonna do my timeAin't no hammer gonna ring like mineWhen I get home I'm gonna shove my doubtsDream my dreams and shut my mouthNo one knows what this is all about nowWhen I get home I'm gonna shove my doubtsDream my dreams and shut my mouthNo one knows what this is all aboutDear old America
