To Bring Back Home

Paint chipped walls and the floor's concrete
Grandad's home had no central heat
Iron wood stove and an old Trans Am
Worked in the sand pits like his old man

I grew up on the great plains
In a small town trying to make a name
You can't push us aside you can't cast away
Cause over these fields no man can reign

Go up north where the twin cities are
See the rundown trailers and burnt out barns
Big oil's come smoke stacks are rising
Makes the winter air taste like poison

I grew up on the great plains
In a small town trying to make a name
You can't push us aside you can't cast away
Cause over these fields no man can reign

Throw some gasoline set the place a blaze
Through the morning light I could see the haze
Dogs are barking across the snowy field
Leaves the charred remains of the old world

I grew up on the great plains
In a small town trying to make a name
You can't push us aside you can't cast away
Cause over these fields no man can reign
