jack marion and the pearl snap prophets - american dream lyrics
[verse 1]
hey there son what are you gonna do?
18 years old got your life ahead of you
we could ship you off to college or maybe to war
or you could work a couple shifts in the family store
you can make an honest livin’ just stayin’ ’round here
spend your days in the rows of a tobacco field
find yourself a girl and just settle down
spend the rest of your life in this sh+ll of a town
[chorus]
and oh woah it’s a terrible thing
just to watch someone struggle day to day
the lights fl!cker out on main
but it all still feels the same
through town, i can hear ’em scream
oh woah it’s the amеrican dream
[verse 2]
you could be like your grandpa workin’ factory
workin’ hard full timе for the reynolds company
puttin’ foil into cigarette packs
workin’ hours a day just breakin’ your back
[chorus]
and oh woah it’s a terrible thing
just to watch someone struggle day to day
the lights fl!cker out on main
but it all still feels the same
through town, i can hear ’em scream
oh woah it’s the american dream
[verse 3]
hey there son now what do you say
don’t feel good to make an honest mans wage
workin 40 hours a week just to get by
while you work yourself to death just to pay to stay alive
while you work yourself to death just to barely stay alive
[chorus]
and oh woah it’s a terrible thing
just to watch someone struggle day to day
the lights fl!cker out on main
but it all still feels the same
through town, i can hear ’em scream
oh woah it’s the american dream
