On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
I pick up my money, head back into town
Drivin' cross the Waynesboury county line
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
Workin' all day in my daddy's garage
Drivin' all night chasing some mirage
Pretty soon, little girl
I'm gonna take charge
Well, the dogs on main street howl 'cuz 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've done my best to live the right way
I get up every morning go to work each day
But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
Sometimes I feel so weak, I just wanna explode
Explode and tear this whole town apart
Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart
Tryin' to find somebody
Itchin' for something to start
The dogs on main street howl 'cuz 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 it's 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 broken hearted
The dogs on main street howl 'cuz 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
