The American Dream
We were sittin' underneath the railroad tracks drinking Boon's farm wine n' kickin' back thinkin' bout how our lives were gonna be then we road our bikes to the Icehouse farm Janey came down with her summer dress on tried to kiss her but you know she turned away and i never did get another chance cos' a football player got in her pants n they had to get married right before the senior prom now 5 kids later with a couple of guys she looks at me with those sad dark eyes thinks about the way things could have been those years are gone and that sun has set and this right here is as good as it gets no use crying over what wasnt meant to be
The American dream wasn't what it seemed but I guess its good to always have a dream
So I went off to get a degree Ted walked into the factory just like his father he stepped up to the plate well he raised two kids and he put em' through school even though he knew they though him a fool n' he kept on pushing n ya know they turned ut great that swing shift life really took its toll his hair turned grey now hes gettin' old n' just when it look like he might catch a break after 37 years the plant closed down packed up all the gear and n' they moved outta town 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 n' everybody's future just seemed to fade away
The American dream wasn't what it seemed but I guess its good to always have a dream
I keep on thinkin' that someday now its gonna change there's a better life a waitin' down the line but when I stop to see how far we've really come then in my heart I know that its okay
Now we're sittin' underneath the railroad tracks gotta quart' o' jack daniels n' we're kickin back thinking bout how our lifetime shoulda been now i ain't the type to sit and complain but you take a look around and ya see its a shame nothin ever seems to turn out like its planned see I sold my soul to the rock and roll fell outta school n' I hit the road never did get a chance to settle down till a met a woman who was just like me the rest as they say is history now we're livin' out our lives as best we can
The American dream wasn't what it seemed but I guess its good to always have a dream yeah I guess its good to always have a dream
