american dream - lucinda williams lyrics

Loading...

last time i saw you, you had dirt under your nails
your eyes were gl-ssy and you looked so pale
you said my life has become a livin’ h-ll
ain’t got enough money to pay my bills

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

got a friend with a needle stuck in his arm
he got hooked on heroin in vietnam
it used to help kill the pain some of the time
now i can’t sleep at all since i got back home

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

i worked in the strip mines off and on
now i can’t seem to get rid of this cough
ain’t been many jobs these last few months
and the last one i had i got laid off

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

i ain’t got no hot water and they shut off the heat
can you loan me some money for something to eat
been out here on this corner for about a week
tryin’ hard to stand on my own two feet

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

they want to try and tell me where i can live
they kicked me off my land and told me they’d give me
a nice little tract house with running water
but how am i gonna explain that to my navaho mother

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

my american dream almost came true
but the things they promised me never came through
i believe in the american dream
but things are never quite what they seem

everything is wrong
everything is wrong

everything is wrong
everything is wrong
