My darling my dear
|
I tell you what is wrong
|
I went to the mountain
|
But the mountain top was gone
|
|
Remember those trees
|
Where as kids we dreamed
|
They tore em down years ago
|
And built a factory
|
|
And when that plant closed
|
The workers all left town
|
I read in the paper that
|
Some kids were killed
|
When it burnt down
|
|
Now I stare at that field
|
Like circle in the earth
|
And nothing¡¯ll grow now
|
That¡¯s not soil
|
It¡¯s just dirt
|
|
And I cant stand it
|
What¡¯s the use in making something new
|
If all that made us must be ruined
|
|
I cant demand it
|
I got nothing but
|
Mounting debt and fear
|
I scratch my head wondering
|
How we got here
|
|
America
|
American
|
What are we doing
|
|
America
|
I am American
|
Please can we start again

Darling my dear
|
I tell you what is right
|
The moon on the lake
|
And swimming by its light
|
|
Darling my dear
|
I tell you what is wrong
|
I went to the mountain
|
But the mountain top was gone
|
|
And I cant stand it
|
What¡¯s the use in making something new
|
If all that made us must be ruined
|
|
I cant demand shit
|
I got nothing
|
But mounting debt and fear
|
We scratch our heads
|
Wondering how we got here
|
|
America
|

What are we doing
