[00:16.081] 'Losing your brave'
[00:18.366] Is that what he said?
[00:23.008] The flag will still wave
[00:25.288] Even after you're dead
[00:30.363] I'll be your American wife
[00:35.691] Like the eagle perched atop the globe
[00:38.619] We'll climb up above the smog and
[00:41.969] Live in blissful ignorance
[00:44.258] With a dog and a TV set
[00:47.450] We'll eat flesh 'til we're fatter than our friends
[00:53.422] But I only play the fool very often
[01:00.873] I only bid my heart like a spade
[01:08.053] I like the gamblin' life
[01:13.872] You never know
[01:14.688] When you're gonna get the new shoes,
[01:17.607] Keys and glasses
[01:19.139] You'll be barefoot, free from debt
[01:22.715] Blinded and wandering
[01:25.087] Maybe then you'll be happier
[01:28.309] (Then you'll be happier)
[01:34.260] The wind used to come
[01:36.719] And nearly blow you over
[01:41.371] The wind doesn't move down these parts anymore
[01:48.233] And so goes the bartering life
[01:54.450] Blood for food then they'll strap you down
[01:56.869] You scream, "Miami was pretty,
[01:59.614] Before we were bitter;
[02:02.370] Before we let our sadness litter the streets."
[02:43.686] You offered your father could be mine
[02:50.729] We looked at your family tree
[02:53.174] And politely declined
[02:57.547] You have eleven siblings
[03:00.211] Who've had ten broken limbs
[03:03.853] Nine divorces
[03:05.937] And eight broken hearts
[03:09.122] And seven grandkids
[03:11.935] And six bypass surgeries
[03:14.643] Five college degrees
[03:18.470] Four are sick
[03:19.766] Three are well
[03:21.282] Two are dead
[03:22.681] One's in jail
[03:24.102] No one here moves away
[03:27.123] No one here moves away
[03:32.761] 'Come on to the grave'
[03:35.650] Is that what i said?
[03:38.746] (Is that what i said?)
[03:40.073] My memory fades when i'm drinking in bed
[03:47.252] I miss the sobering life
[03:52.948] The comforter will not come unto to me
[03:55.518] 'Til I'm a fearless, faithless
[03:59.042] Nothing at all
[04:00.978] 'Cause no one escapes their life
[04:04.869] No one escapes their life
[04:07.646] No one escapes their life
[04:10.617] (no one, no one)
[04:13.451] It may sound depressing
[04:16.084] It's just a life lesson
[04:19.015] In the bartering, gambling life
[04:24.675] I'll be your American wife
