Life is a Country Song

These days have been tough and trouble's far from gone

The cash in my pocket cant buy me a coke, 

something tells me somethings wrong

How can the world be broke

The news get worse every day, people losing homes, jobs and sanity

I pray there is there a cure for our recession,

before it takes hold of my neighbor and me

I'm walking down main street and barely recognize my friends

smiles have turned to frowns

help me pick love up off the ground

I'm running down main street trying to save myself

Left my dog and pickup truck behind, 

its every man for himself

The American dream is lost in a cloud of banks and prayers

A new hero arises, a hope

A challenger of ney sayers

Our colors never run they say, 

But Im watching old glory fade away

Time moves in slow motion, but the rugs are pulled much faster

I want to stop reading, but im intrigued by this disaster

I'm running down Main Street trying to save myself

Ive left grandma behind and stole her cookie jar

The cash could buy me a bus ticket 

Only hope I dont smike it or stop at the local bar

I'm running down Main Street picking up pieces to save

Hoping that it all wont end up in a government grave

It may be broken but its mine, my Kennedy castle

Ill wake up and live, without tribulation and hastle.
