Pipe Bomb Dream Lyrics
Tonight we're fighting in a losing war
Don't even remember what we're fightin' for
Running on hope and gasoline
Got a real, bad feeling it's a pipe bomb dreamSo, I did a little something for the brave and free
Now you 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
Too heavy on the pedal and you crash and burn
Driving all night with a steady hand
Bringin' a heavy rig home from the promised land
Oklahoma City by the morning sun
I ain't never met a problem that I can't outrunI did a little something for the brave and free
Now you 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 burnWell, I was riding high when the lights came on
I was 45 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 alright but you know it's not
And you're breaking up laws and you wind up caught
It's everything or all for naught
It's a hard ass lesson to learn
Roll the dice just one more turn
Too heavy on the pedal and crash and burn
Too heavy on the pedal and crash and burn
