Small Town USA

Dad works midnight so he can coach my games
Mom sells wallpaper so we don’t feel ashamed
Brother and I have everything we need
Food, shelter and a family with out greed
The American dream in small town USA
Like Sabrinsky says everyday is Saturday

Mom works midnights on a street by the school
Dad hasn't been around he says there are no rules
Brother sister, cousin and I work as adults throughout our day
We wonder about the kids down the street who always get to play.
Childhood lost in small town USA
Much better than where we came from yesterday to Today.
