[Verse]
There´s a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
There´s a big aching hole in my chest now where my heart was
And a hole in the sky where God used to be
There´s a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There´s a well where the water´s so bitter nobody can drink
Ain´t no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can´t speak
Don´t they know that I´m dying why´s nobody crying for me
My American dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
There´s a home place under fire tonight in a heartland
And bankers are taking the homes and the land away
There´s a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a heartland
Who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can´t pay
His American dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
My American dream
There´s a home place under fire tonight in the heartland [x4]
