Verse 1
On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert I pick up my money
and head back into town Driving cross the Waynesboro county line
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
Working all day in my daddy's garage Driving all night chasing some mirage
Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge
Chorus
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land
Verse 2
I've done my best to live the right way I get up every morning
and go to work each day But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode Explode and tear this town apart
Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart Find somebody itching for something
to start
Chorus
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land

Verse 3
There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor I packed my bags
and I'm heading straight into the storm Gonna be a twister to blow everything down
C G Em G apart
That ain't got the faith to stand its ground Blow away the dreams that tear you
Em G Em Am nothing
Blow away the dreams that break your heart Blow away the lies that leave you
But lost and brokenhearted
Chorus
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land
Outro
And I believe in a promised land And I believe in a promised land
