Never got love from a government man
headin' downstream till the levee gives in
What can I do to get the money,
We ain't got the money, we ain't gettin' out
headin' downstream till the levee gives in
and my dreams are wearin' thin
all I need's relief, I need, I need some sympathy
Look at me, I just can't believe
What they've done to me
We could never get free, 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 my life been wadin' in
Water so deep now we gotta swim
Wonder will it ever end
how long how long till we have a friend
comin' down, feelin' like a battery man
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
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
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
I just wanna dream
I just wanna dream
I just wanna dream
baby, you know me
