Bakersfield |
| What do you want? |
| Where do you find it? |
| You can call it what you will |
| The sound of heartbreak from a jail cell |
| Finding work in bar all nights |
| Jukebox letters and numbers |
| The burning hearts and starving minds |
| Souls in pain as if I’m punishment |
| The ways and needs to survive |
| There’s a passion that’s put on the line |
| Money to burn and fortunes to find |
| Without a claim, without a stake |
| I’m living only for today |
| There will be starts, there will be stumbles |
| Our tongue out on the line to dry |
| And a piece from wagers of working |
| And hell breaks loose on Saturday night |
| Aren’t you happy? |
| The least it’s living |
| Freedom to choose to stay down |
| Always a wild wind blowing |
| Just want a guitar and a radio |
| In the fields of the valley |
| The sweet and toil along with the land |
| No cup of gold, no candy mountain |
| What better place to make a stand? |
