war hippies - american son lyrics

[chorus]
this land is hard, this land is mean
this dirt is red from the blood it’s seen
raised on the good book, hand on a gun
never backing down, the american son

[verse 1]
i was born from the blood of a working man
stand and fight for those who can’t
i put my hand ‘cross my heart even in the hard times
i get chills up my back when i see ol’ glory fly

[chorus]
this land is hard, this land is mean
this dirt is red from the blood it’s seen
raised on the good book, hand on a gun
never backin’ down, the american son

[verse 2]
ain’t afraid of sweat, ain’t afraid to bleed
stand alone for what i believe
rather die on my beat than live on my knees
there ain’t no man that’s gonna take it from me

[chorus]
this land is hard, this land is mean
this dirt is red from thе blood it’s seen
raised on the good book, hand on a gun
nevеr backin’ down, the american son
[verse 3]
we come from the farms and the ranches
the oil field hands, the ones who turn the wrenches
we built these bridges and roads
yeah, the big rig drivers haulin’ a load
we’re the mason, the cop, the coal miner
the banker, the lawyer and the firefighter
i’m the man in the shadows who carries a gun
i’m the sheepdog, the american son

[outro]
i am the american son
never backin’ down, i ain’t never gonna run
i am the american son
never backin’ down, i ain’t never gonna run
i am the american son
never backin’ down, i ain’t never gonna run
i am the american son
i’m gonna take you to my grave when my day is done
