There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland (*)
An' the bankers are takin' my home an' my land from me
There's a big achin' hole in my chest now where my heart was
An' 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 with water so bitter nobody can drink
Ain't no way to get high an' my mouth is so dry that i can't speak
Don't they know that i'm dyin', why nobody cryin' 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 the heartland
The bankers are takin' my home an' my land away
There's a young boy closin' his eyes tonight in the heartland
Who will wake up a man with a home an' 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 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 the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland. ‎
