Betting on Us |
| This foreign interest, man, they’re running my business |
| They say I’ve gone too far |
| The conditions worsened and clouded my vision |
| They say I wanted too much |
| Thought about it for a minute and I came to the decision |
| That they’re probably right here |
| I am tired of waiting |
| And I want it too much |
| And so I’m stepping on up to the plate |
| And I’m betting on us all the way |
| They’re checking gauges, man, they’re coming in stages |
| They say they won’t give up |
| They’ve been clocking my numbers |
| But I’m working the summers |
| ‘Cause I want it so much |
| I was down in the trenches — doing my time |
| Now I’m swinging for the fences — it’s all on the line |
| And I’m nervous and shaking |
| Tired and patient |
| And I want to go home |
| But no, I’m stepping on up to the plate |
| And I’m betting on us all the way |
| I’m not betting on luck, no |
| It’s just a lie, it’s just a lie, just a lie |
| ‘Cause I’ve been waiting forever |
| But I know I can get it if I want it so much |
| So I’m betting on us |
| That’s why I’m betting on us |
| I’m betting on us (x3) |
| That’s why I’m betting on us, yeah |
| All the way, yeah |
| All the way, all the way |
| Betting on us |
| Stepping up |
| Goddammit, what am I waiting for? |
| Oh no, betting on us |
| Set it up |
| Shame on me, what am I waiting for? |
