《American Dream》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:46] I’m going down

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:09] Until she turned 62

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

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

[00:01:24] That’s my American dream

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

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

[00:01:34] I guess I’m free

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

[00:01:44] That’s my American dream

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:28] I’m going down

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

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

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

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

[00:03:02] And imagine I’m inside one

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

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

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

[00:03:20] That’s my American dream

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

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

[00:03:30] I guess I’m free

[00:03:35] That’s my American dream

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

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

[00:03:44] I guess I’m free

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

[00:03:55] It’s my American dream
