It's Flag Day and they're hanging out the stars And stripes to mark the season The birthday boy's dressed up and he's finally looking like the king He's got worry lining his back pocket But they ain't all and sundry Lock it up and burn it to the ground A man must have his reasons Nothing sticks and moving all around The choice was never ours to make We're a long way from where we started And further from any promise made
Now he's leaving, oh, sure as the day is long Now he's moving, oh, rising up then he's gone
Drifting back and forth across state lines The odds were never even Riding in a car that isn't ours Through a town we never been He's got one foot in the fire And another stepping on a train
Now he's going, oh, soon as the morning comes Oh, he's broken, oh, more than he could have known
One life was trouble and the other was struggle One life was never enough A dream kept inside him, a dream that denied him One life was never enough Like birds in bad weather, they all flock together One life was never enough The flag is still waving, the memory's fading One life was never enough Enough
