All the founding fathers sewed their seeds
In the southern coast
All the godless heathens had to leave
To make a newer world
So we could live together in America
Justice is blinding so is love
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
All the stolen melodies they played
In the hit parade
All the power spirituals they fade
In a salute
So we could sing together in America
Black sermon anthem, painted love
Polystyrene 100 dollar bills
To build a shining city on the hill
(Forgot them all!)
There's no cure for pain or shame
You just have to be this way
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
If you steal and hustle don't get caught
Gotta risk it all
Hang on every note that they read off
For the Powerball
We'll all get rich together in America
Money's indifferent – so is love
Trash bags full of 100 dollar bills
(Statues on the wall)
We left that broke down city on the hill
(Forget them all!)
Have to relocate the past
Because we're never going back
compositores: CONOR M. OBERST, DENVER COLLIN DALLEY, IAN M. MCELROY, LANDON W. HEDGES, MATT S. BAUM
