Well, we're rolling out west Where the blacktop kills With a pack of cigarettes And a belly full of pills There's a girl out there And she's street-fighting Past the mighty Mississip And the dry lightning If you read my hand Can you read my mind If you do then you'll know Why we run and hide And if you give everything That's been asked of you You'll get spit out alone With sullen mud on your boots It's said that Laying down roots Will get you buried in the dirt So I want to be Where there's no trees to remind me I'll manifest I'll manifest My own destiny Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man Now it's all eyes front As the future dawns Make ready the intrepid Or you can't keep up Yes, you must go forward Ever-onward Looking back will only Break your neck I'm a diction-impaired lost-boy From my lungs down to my shoes Eviscerated Demonstration of Walking pale-dog blues And if I Really wanted to find myself I'd have to dig myself six feet down Push aside the earth That covers up the reasons Why I blew this town To manifest I'll manifest My own destiny Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man Give me wide open frontier Give me blue-field skies Life in motion-perpetual Can help to clear my blurry mind Ease my poor blurry mind Now it's all back east In a city called Tomorrow Where you live sky-high In the chrome of the hollow I'll exhaust myself Of words for you Saying everything and nothing But you still see through And I'd travel any distance I'd travel many moons To be by your side In troubled times And face this dusk with you So won't you Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man Wrap me In Old Glory Wanna be a dust-covered man And my friend, if we don't make it It's been an honor and a privilege To make this stand with you
