Lyrics

Iโ€™m a just keep watching I think my hearts stopping Nicotine fiend of a man I was born this way Iโ€™m government slave and I was raised on stolen land Itโ€™s a hard up kind of life Begging the ashtray for nickels and dimes Writing these songs trying to wrap my mind Around a bullshit American Dream Iโ€™m still a six-gun owning Bet the truth hurts donโ€™t it Wonโ€™t you catch me if you can I hope all is well Itโ€™ll be a cold day in hell When you pry it from my dying hands โ€˜Cause itโ€™s a hard up kind of life When paying your dues donโ€™t get you by Youโ€™re working all week to make some overtime To pay for this bullshit American Dream Iโ€™ve heard once to be dreaming means youโ€™ve got to be asleep And Iโ€™ve grown tired of counting these sheep I had a dream I was drugged and when I finally woke up I went and blew up my TV โ€˜Cause itโ€™s a hard up kind of life When youโ€™re not allowed to get a natural high Hereโ€™s a pill to help you sleep just give it some time Now youโ€™re addicted to this bullshit American Dream Itโ€™s a hard up kind of life Begging the ashtray for nickels and dimes Writing these songs trying to wrap my mind Around a bullshit American Dream
