๐ Lyrics
His mind is lost in yesterday
He's standing beneath a streetlight in L.A.
It doesn't matter that I've lost everything
I've done my best to give it all away
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
I came from small town U.S.A.
I've had my share of failures along the way
Although I know success is a measure in your mind
You look at me now as I'm beggin' for a dime
You feel you have the right to judge me
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
This is my story don't you see this could be every man
All from some choices made not long ago
This is my story don't you see this could be you man
Why we make choices no one ever knows
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
He's standing beneath a streetlight in L.A.
It doesn't matter that I've lost everything
I've done my best to give it all away
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
I came from small town U.S.A.
I've had my share of failures along the way
Although I know success is a measure in your mind
You look at me now as I'm beggin' for a dime
You feel you have the right to judge me
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
This is my story don't you see this could be every man
All from some choices made not long ago
This is my story don't you see this could be you man
Why we make choices no one ever knows
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream
I followed my American dream to a life of depression and poverty
A story that many of you don't know
I went from all American kid to a bum on the street in your neighborhood
There's things about me that you don't know
