Got a four oh one built of dirt and sticks

On a patch of land off of sixty-six

Where the river ends

And the sun don’t ever shine

I been beat too long to change my ways

Never got the call, never made the grade

So I learned

To live off of the land

And I guess they call this America

But I ain’t living no dream

I’m just fallin’ free

In the land of liberty

When the government came to claim this land

There was no one left to make a stand

They was rousted

Twenty years gone by

It’s the hardest lesson the heart can learn

To watch all you’ve worked to build just burn

And crumble

As dust falls into dust

I guess they call this America

But I ain’t living no dream

I’m just fallin’ free

In the land of liberty

Don’t look down

Don’t you ever look back

Got a one way ticket

On a dead end track

Got a part time job

Making minimum wage

And I’m free

Free to live the dream

This highway and this land are mine

But I just see dividing lines

And faces

That have seen too much

Got one last chance to find my place

I’m getting out of this goddamn race

And going

Where the river never ends

I guess they call this America

But I ain’t living no dream

I’m just fallin’ free

In the land of liberty
