Lyrics

On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert I pick up my money, head back into town Driving 'cross the Waynesboro county line I got the radio on but I'm just killing time Working all day in my daddy's garage Driving all night chasing some mirage Pretty soon, darling, I'm gonna take charge Well, the dogs on Main Street howl 'cause they understand If I could take this moment into my hands Mister, I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man And I believe in a promised land I done my best now to live the right way I get up every morning and go to work each day But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold Sometimes I feel so weak, I just want to explode Explode and tear this whole town apart Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart Try to find somebody itching for something to start Well, the dogs on Main Street howl 'cause they understand If I could take this moment into my hands Mister, I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man And I believe in a promised land There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor I packed my bags and I'm heading straight into the storm Gonna be a twister to blow everything down That ain't got the faith to stand its ground Blow away the dreams that tear you apart Blow away the dreams that break your heart Blow away the lies that leave you nothing but lost and brokenhearted Well, the dogs on Main Street howl 'cause they understand If I could take this moment into my hands Mister, I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man And I believe in a promised land And I believe in a promised land And I believe in a promised land
