lyrics

So you say this is the place to be
wait a while then come back and see me
This town is being dragged through the mud
feast your eyes on the tracks and the trail of blood
The greedy get their way you see there is no limit
You best watch your step or get caught up in it
You look to find your own dreams and they're long gone
So I'll...be travelin' on....
The city lives and the city dies
To watch it go is an offense to my eyes
I watch 'em roll I see the pig in shit
I'm disgusted and it's time to quit
Get a load of this I think i'll speak my mind
The poor man does the time for the lawman's crime
We all let it slide though we know it's wrong
in poverty I would rather be travelin' on
Truth is fire but cotton is king
The servant's head is in the guillotine
Crap is gold and the art's in the tank
Sing hallelujah all the way to the bank
But it's an avalanche and you just can't stop it
The point of no return has been long forgotten
But I don't give a damn I'll sing my rebel song
then i'll be travelin' on....
