| Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland
|
| Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts, man
|
| I’m caught in a cross fire that I don’t understand
|
| But there’s one thing I know for sure girl
|
| I don’t give a damn for the same old played out scenes
|
| Baby I don’t give a damn for just the in betweens
|
| Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul, I want control right now
|
| You better listen to me baby
|
| Talk about a dream, try to make it real
|
| You wake up in the night with a fear so real
|
| You spend your life waiting for a moment that just don’t come
|
| Well, don’t waste your time waiting
|
| Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
|
| Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
|
| We’ll keep pushin' till it’s understood
|
| And these badlands start treating us good
|
| Workin' in the fields till you get your back burned
|
| Workin' 'neath the wheel till you get your facts learned
|
| Baby I got my facts learned real good right now
|
| You better get it straight darling
|
| Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king
|
| And a king ain’t satisfied till he rules everything
|
| I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got
|
| Well I believe in the love that you gave me
|
| I believe in the faith that could save me
|
| I believe in the hope and I pray that some day
|
| It may raise me above these
|
| Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
|
| Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
|
| We’ll keep pushin' till it’s understood
|
| And these badlands start treating us good
|
| For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
|
| That it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive
|
| I wanna find one face that ain’t looking through me
|
| I wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of these
|
| Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
|
| Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
|
| Keep movin' till it’s understood
|
| And these badlands start treating us good
|
| Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
|
| Badlands, whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
| Badlands, whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
| Badlands, whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
| Badlands, whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
| Badlands, whoa whoa whoa whoa |
