| Born with a stainless steel dream
|
| That one day you’d be free
|
| Bound by the name of your town
|
| Wherever you may roam
|
| It follows you around
|
| No matter how many ways you try
|
| To kiss this place goodbye
|
| It lives in you til the day you die
|
| Say the words with a tear in your eye
|
| «Welcome to Janesville»
|
| How far away have you run
|
| To forget what they’ve done?
|
| They beat you down til you’re broke
|
| Another blow was struck
|
| With ever word they spoke
|
| No matter how many ways you try
|
| To kiss this place goodbye
|
| It lives in you til the day you die
|
| Say the words with a tear in your eye
|
| «Welcome to Janesville»
|
| Welcome to Janesville (repeated)
|
| Born with a stainless steel dream
|
| That one day you’d be free
|
| Change both your hair and your name
|
| But something in your way
|
| Betrays from whence you came
|
| No matter how many ways you try
|
| To kiss this place goodbye
|
| It lives in you til the day you die
|
| Say the words with a tear in your eye
|
| «Welcome to Janesville» |
