lyrics

We saved big money and we lost our little town
We boarded up the window, let the whole thing down
There's a prairie grass graveyard where we park our car
It's in the name of progress--how'd we let it get this far

American Dreams swallowed the America I love
The companies hallowed my heart of any trust
And now I sing softly to my babe:
I hope you make a home out of this mess that we've made.

We wanted more fuel so we spilled more blood
He came back in a coffin--why do the best die young?
When I turn the engine my heart takes the wheel
I paid for the gas but whose life did I steal?
