Dream Good
Well I ain't dreamed so good since I got leveraged from my home
The man down from the bank said "it ain't me, son, it's the law"
Now we're sleeping in the Buick
Three up front, three in the back
I'm trying to get my dreaming back on track
Trying to get my credit back to black
Once credit was the merit that you earned by learning hard
Slagging iron or laying tile like pa and his before
When a man is judged again by effort
Not by what he's stole and stored
I'll dream better than I've ever dreamed before
I'll dream better than I've ever dreamed before
Well I ain't dreamed so good since I been seeking out some grace
Cause it's hard to gauge the changes anymore from place to place
We got strip malls cut and pasted, we got one-trick radio
We got roads to burn and nowhere left to go
But we got minds that need some wilderness to grow
But singing o'er the red rock, in the purple mountain wake
In the amber of the ocean bending like the winded grain
There's still lullabies to live by you can't buy in any store
To set you dreaming like you never dreamed before
They'll set you dreaming like you never dreamed before
Well I ain't dreamed so good since I been scattered cross this land
Become a man run ragged just to hold two hands of sand
But the third shift down at Goodyear they ain't hiring anymore
And my baby's in the backseat with a temp of 104
God shut the blinds and he ain't unlocked the door
But still my boots they love a factory floor
Cause I'm the son of everything I've loved and built and made
And I still trust my babies to the Union to be saved
So when I lay my heart and hammer at the providential door
I'll dream better than I ever dreamed before
I'll dream better than I ever dreamed before
Cause my brothers and my sisters know the score
They still believe this land's worth dreaming for
The man down from the bank said "it ain't me, son, it's the law"
Now we're sleeping in the Buick
Three up front, three in the back
I'm trying to get my dreaming back on track
Trying to get my credit back to black
Once credit was the merit that you earned by learning hard
Slagging iron or laying tile like pa and his before
When a man is judged again by effort
Not by what he's stole and stored
I'll dream better than I've ever dreamed before
I'll dream better than I've ever dreamed before
Well I ain't dreamed so good since I been seeking out some grace
Cause it's hard to gauge the changes anymore from place to place
We got strip malls cut and pasted, we got one-trick radio
We got roads to burn and nowhere left to go
But we got minds that need some wilderness to grow
But singing o'er the red rock, in the purple mountain wake
In the amber of the ocean bending like the winded grain
There's still lullabies to live by you can't buy in any store
To set you dreaming like you never dreamed before
They'll set you dreaming like you never dreamed before
Well I ain't dreamed so good since I been scattered cross this land
Become a man run ragged just to hold two hands of sand
But the third shift down at Goodyear they ain't hiring anymore
And my baby's in the backseat with a temp of 104
God shut the blinds and he ain't unlocked the door
But still my boots they love a factory floor
Cause I'm the son of everything I've loved and built and made
And I still trust my babies to the Union to be saved
So when I lay my heart and hammer at the providential door
I'll dream better than I ever dreamed before
I'll dream better than I ever dreamed before
Cause my brothers and my sisters know the score
They still believe this land's worth dreaming for
