I've been keepin' my head above water
Trying hard not to drown
Keepin' my head above water
You keep holding me down
Here we go now
Well here I am
The American dream
I got a 3D Jesus on my wall
Says, "In God we trust" on my money
Dream in color
But I live in black and white
It's where everybody tells me
Nothing happens overnight
I've been keepin' my head above water
Trying hard not to drown
Keepin' my head above water
You keep holding me down
ย
Some of my friends are dead
Some have just stopped living
Well some are rich and famous
Some of us are still waiting
Cold hard women
All they want is my cold hard cash
Rich man, poor man, it's not important
Money don't make no man
I've been keepin' my head above water
Trying hard not to drown
Keepin' my head above water
You keep holding me down
Between henhouse and pavement
Hardship is the only ship coming in
With a promise that you gave me
Someday, someday we could win
ย
I'm drowning darling
ย
I've been keepin' my head above water
I've been keepin' my head above water
ย
Some of my friends are dead
And some of them have just stopped living
I know people in the White House
They don't know more than people in the poorhouse
Some are rich and famous
And some of us are still waiting
I've been keepin' my head above water
Trying hard not to drown
Keepin' my head above water
You keep holding me down
You keep holding me down
You keep holding me down
ย
Going down, down under the sea
