American Dream It's real It's something I've seen And it all begin as a no name band With a fiddle and rock and roll And cigarette smoke She's the devil and she's someone I know She whispers to me through the laughter And every now and then I just give in Whiskey and water And girls without fathers A headache tomorrow A Hail Mary to make me feel sane What happens dear mother the day I forget how to pray How to pray We shot the arrows We Chased them down like old vaqueros We drove through the night in the darkness Until the cold was just too much to take I broke ya down The thought of us racing through towns I swore it would just last through the season But god knows that winters long gone Long gone Whiskey and water And Girls without fathers When she leaves tomorrow A Hail Mary will make me feel sane But What happens dear mother the day I forget how to pray How to pray And that next towns lights get to shining so bright But I find my self feeling home And I'm sorry Whiskey and water Girls without fathers And we leave tomorrow A Hail Mary will make me feel sane Please help me dear mother to never forget how to pray How to pray
