Never got love from a government man
Heading downstream till the levee gives in
What can I do to get the money
We ain't go the money, we ain't gettin' out
Heading downstream till the levee gives in
And my dreams are wearin' thin
All I need's relief
I need I need some sympathy oh yeah
Look at me
I just can't believe
What they've done to me
We could never get free
I just wanna be (I just wanna be)
Look at me
I just can't believe
What they've done to me
We could never get free
I just wanna be
I just wanna dream
All of my life been wadin' in
Water so deep now we got to swim
Wonder will it ever end
How long, how long till we have a friend
Comin' down feelin' like a battery hen
Waves won't break till the tide comes in
What will I do in the sunrise
What will I do without my dreams
Look at me
I just can't believe
What they've done to me
We could never get free
I just wanna be (I just wanna be)
Look at me
I just can't believe
What they've done to me
We could never get free
I just wanna be
I just wanna dream
We're all together in the same boat
I know you, you know me
Baby, you know me
We're all together in the same boat
I know you, you know me
Baby, you know me
We're all together in the same boat (Look at me, I just can't believe)
I know you, you know me (What they've done to me, we could never get free
Baby, you know me (I just wanna be, I just wanna dream)
I just wanna dream, I just wanna dream
Baby you know me
