American Dream (Live|2003/The Fillmore, San Francisco) - Lucinda Williams
Last time I saw you you had dirt
Under your nails
Your eyes were glassy
And you looked so pale
You said my life has become a livin' hell
Ain't got enough money to pay my bills
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Got a friend with a needle
Stuck in his arm
He got hooked on h****n in Vietnam
It used to help kill
The pain some of the time
Now I can't sleep at all
Since I got back home
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
I worked in the strip mines off and on
Now I can't seem to get rid of this cough
Ain't been many jobs these last few months
And the last one
I had I got laid off
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
I ain't got no hot water
And they shut off the heat
Can you loan me some money
For something to eat
Been out here on this corner
For about a week
Tryin' hard to stand
On my own two feet
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
They want to try and tell me
Where I can live
They kicked me off my land
And told me they'd give me
A nice little tract house
With running water
But how am I gonna explain
That to my Navaho mother
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
My American dream almost came true
But the things they promised me
Never came through
I believe in the American dream
But things are never quite
What they seem
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
