Willie Nelson - Heartland lyrics

[Verse] There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me There's a big aching hole in my chest now where my heart was And a hole in the sky where God used to be There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can drink Ain't no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can't speak Don't they know that I'm dying why's nobody crying for me My American dream fell apart at the seams You tell me what it means you tell me what it means There's a home place under fire tonight in a heartland And bankers are taking the homes and the land away There's a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a heartland Who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't pay His American dream fell apart at the seams You tell me what it means you tell me what it means My American dream There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland [x4]
