Pipe Bomb Dream

Tonight, we're fightin' in a losing war

Don't even remember what we're fighting for

We're runnin' on hope and gasoline

And got a real bad feeling it's a pipe bomb dream

Oh, and I did a little somethin' for the brave and free

Now you're gonna make a law against a boy like me?

Took a few too many liberties

It's a hard ass lesson to learn

Roll the dice, just one more turn

And too heavy on the pedal and you crash and burn

Drivin' all night with a steady hand

Bringin' heavyweight home from the promise land

Oklahoma City by the morning sun

I ain't never met a problem that I can't outrun

Oh, and I did a little somethin' for the brave and free

Now you're gonna make a law against a boy like me?

Took a few too many liberties

It's a hard ass lesson to learn

But I roll the dice, just one more turn

Too heavy on the pedal and you crash and burn

Well, I was ridin' high when the lights came on

And I was forty five miles from the county line

Hit a jackpot once, went back for more

From an old pipe dream to a cell block floor

Say it's all right, but you know it's not

And you break enough laws, and you wind up caught

It's everything or all for nought

It's a hard ass lesson to learn

Roll the dice, just one more turn

Too heavy on the pedal and you crash and burn

Too heavy on the pedal and you crash and burn
