American Screams - Arkells

Can you face it?

Can you embrace it?

You can’t replace — nope

The time you’ve wasted

This panorama

Portland to Alabama

The ground you’re standing

To protect your family

You double down when your back’s against the wall

You double down when you hear the dealer call

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work

I put my faith in only things that I can see

And trust my eyes aren’t playing tricks on me

Down in the desert, outside the Mandalay

Hoping and praying, didn’t change a thing

You double down when your back’s against the wall

You double down when you hear the dealer call

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work

You keep repeating that wicked catchphrase

Painted on the interstate

All the billboards, they get me lonely

I can’t sleep off all these American screams tonight

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

Its gonna be hard work

You’ve got your good book all wrong

You wanna do God’s work?

Its gonna be hard work

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work

You wanna do God’s work?

It’s gonna be hard work
