lyrics

You cut me down, you cut me deep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep

I drank my whiskey, I shed my tears
I'm losing battles year after to year

A broken dream, or so it seems
A dirty path I've tried to make clean
Cant turn around when I'm losing ground
I fought for life as I'm always gunned down

You've got to fight, with all your might
You've got to try for that American Dream
Not hard to sin when you try and win
You've got to try for that American Dream

A broken dream, or so it seems
A dirty path I've tried to make clean
Cant turn around while losing ground
I fought for life as I'm always gunned down.

You've got to fight, with all your might
You've got to try for that American Dream
Not hard to sin when you try and win
You've got to try for that American Dream

hooooo hooo
Yeah

Your heading for a revolution
Carry me along the way
I've tried to find lifes solution
'every dog has its day

You've got to fight, with all your might
You've got to try for that American Dream
Not hard to sin when you try and win
You've got to try for that American Dream
