For America |
Living on bennies and apple pie |
Cigarettes whiskey and a wide open sky |
He inspired millions long after he died |
On the road, looking for America |
Well my buddy’s son joined up with the 48th brigade |
One week and a month and a buck sergeants paid |
But he lost his right arm on a Baghdad highway |
That’s one hell of a price to pay fighting for America |
Gardens of stone and dinosaur bones |
When they all come back home what will they find? |
What will they find? |
I dreamed I went back to the Promised Land |
I went down to the crossroads and I shook the Devil’s hand |
When I woke up I found my self sifting through the sand |
And I wondered what was the plan, for America? |
For America, for America |
