Heartland Lyrics

There's a home place under fire Tonight in the heartland And the bankers are taking my home And my land from me
There's a big achin' hole in my chest Now, where my heart was And 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 where the water's so bitter Nobody can drink
Ain't no way to get high and my mouth Is so dry that I can't speak Don't they know that I'm dyin' Why's 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 And bankers are taking the homes [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/heartland-lyrics-willie-nelson.html ] And the land away
There's a young boy closin' his eyes Tonight in the heartland Who will wake up a man with some land And 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
There's a home place under fire Tonight in the heartland There's a home place under fire Tonight in the heartland
