Lyrics Cherokee St - Son Volt

Cherokee St

Spent all my fortunes
Laughed away more dollars than dimes
But I’ve seen the smile of a Cherokee St. girl
And I know what it feels like to fly
No well water to run dry
Too many graves to be kept clean
I shook the hand of what each day delivered
Today’s world is not my home
There’s need for change, not more prisons
Decisions made with a blind eye
Just believe a better day will rise
Until then, this world is not my home
Spent all my fortunes
Laughed away more dollars than dimes
But I’ve seen the smile of a Cherokee St. girl
And I know what it feels like to fly
