Dreams
He drives past a family on their porch in worn out jeans
They used to run the diner now they're eating rice and beans
The potholes give him headache
Or maybe it's the job he lost?
Girl sticks out her thumb but he's too scared to stop
The gauge is down to zero, he's already pushing his luck
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
Sun is setting and his throat is dry, needs to water his shallow roots
The bar sign is screaming loud, but he's got to pay his dues
Pawn the watch of gold from dad
And drive her away from streets of fear
Buy her a house by a creek and some day maybe have some kids
He refuses be the guy that remains always lost in a rut
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
She walks with a bag along the road side
Waiting for someone to give her a ride
To Big Rock Candy Mountain
Nights are freezing and pinch her soul
Her goal is a place where noone's on parole
It's Big Rock Candy Mountain
Big Rock Candy Mountain
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
They used to run the diner now they're eating rice and beans
The potholes give him headache
Or maybe it's the job he lost?
Girl sticks out her thumb but he's too scared to stop
The gauge is down to zero, he's already pushing his luck
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
Sun is setting and his throat is dry, needs to water his shallow roots
The bar sign is screaming loud, but he's got to pay his dues
Pawn the watch of gold from dad
And drive her away from streets of fear
Buy her a house by a creek and some day maybe have some kids
He refuses be the guy that remains always lost in a rut
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
She walks with a bag along the road side
Waiting for someone to give her a ride
To Big Rock Candy Mountain
Nights are freezing and pinch her soul
Her goal is a place where noone's on parole
It's Big Rock Candy Mountain
Big Rock Candy Mountain
Dreams are the wind in his sails
He's battling the storms on 7 seas
For as long as it takes
Long as it takes
Dreams in his sails
