My American Dreams

I was only seventeen
When they took my daddy’s farm
Workin’ day and night
Had finally lost its charm
No irrigation pipes to move
No fences to mend on our island in the stream
‘Cause that day they shot holes
in my American dream

I been a long time on the road
Just playin’ in a rock n roll band
I been so many places man
It helps me understand
In their eyes a reflection
Of a once great nation it seems
Where all have lost sight
of their American dreams
Where all have lost sight

Of their American dreams

Are you feeling all right
I’m not feeling to good myself
Are you feeling all right
I’m not feeling to good myself

What if you woke up tomorrow
And everything was gone
Living out of your SUV
And told to move along
We all want the good life
But brother to what extreme
There begin to be holes
in the American dream

Holes turn into canyons
In my American dreams
