mccarthy trenching - the victories of ancestry lyrics

Loading...

we are the poorest players in the sport of kings
and not being able to eat will make a man mean
lately i can’t keep seem to keep myself from questioning
is it worth the run through the mud
just for one moment in the sun?

on these reclaimed floodplains and county fairgrounds
as the ambulance driver keeps chasing us around
for these poor old men who drive their pickups into town
is it worth us tearing up our guts
just for them to have a little fun?

and i hate the fat men who own the ponies
and their fat hands that hold the cash
fattened billfolds hold more than money
they possess the papers and the deeds
the victories of ancestry

but our blood is older than this country
and yours at least is far more pure
together we may create beauty
together we may achieve something that will endure

‘cause we were born and bred to run
we were raised and trained to run
we are paid and persuaded to run
plus the drugs they push on us
that thin our blood make us run
make us run, make us run

1,2,3,4!
[instrumental break down]
sorry! i f-cked it up
we were so close though
how about we just do it now and add it on to the take?
uh, append it?
no, just do it live like this
hah, no
no, let’s just try it
1,2,1,2,3,4
[instrumental break down]
