We've been searchin' up and down this weary country Worn out, looking for ways that we can feed our hungry We were told the streets were paved with gold And the future would be ours to hold But we've seen the dream get bought and sold
*In the promised land We don't wanna hear it anymore 'Cause the common man Has heard all these promises before In the promised land
We try to be faithful to our true convictions But there's so much danger in the heart's addictions We were told that we could have it all Now our backs are up against the wall As we stand looking at the rise and fall
In the promised land We don't wanna hear it anymore 'Cause the common man Has heard all these promises before
Smoldering ice Concrete and steel Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real Tell me where did we go wrong And what will it take To heal this condition Before it's too lateTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
