American Names

I can see it, the moon over the 133,

Why do all the highways lead to where you don't wanna be

Come on, I can see it

Come on, we've been saying this for years

I promise once a mile

The feeling is a deal

Your coming home and the radio is screaming out into your ear

And you can't wait to get off when the clock strikes 5am

If you're always on your way out the door,

you'll never have a place to call home,

and home is always too far.

Drive forth, give your kids American names, give them more than what was given to you

Some of you in hell won't know it, but most of you don't show it,

We all have pride and shame.

And hey man, I wish we could just drive them both away

Driving, driving away

Driving, driving away

Come on, I can see it

Come on, we've been saying this for years

Come on, I can see it, come on...

If your always on your way out the door, you never had a place to call home

and home is always too far to drive

Driving, driving away.
