[00:09.50]On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
[00:13.45]I pick up my money and head back into town
[00:17.50]Driving cross the Waynesboro county line
[00:21.40]I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
[00:25.77]Working all day in my daddy's garage
[00:29.75]Driving all night chasing some mirage
[00:33.85]Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge
[00:38.21]The dogs on main street howl
[00:40.26]'Cause they understand
[00:41.85]If I could take one moment into my hands
[00:46.36]Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
[00:50.59]And I believe in a promised land
[00:55.07]I've done my best to live the right way
[00:58.99]I get up every morning and go to work each day
[01:03.09]But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
[01:07.00]Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode
[01:11.85]Explode and tear this town apart
[01:15.64]Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart
[01:20.16]Find somebody itching for something to start
[01:24.03]The dogs on main street howl
[01:26.28]'Cause they understand
[01:27.81]If I could reach one moment into my hands
[01:32.53]Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
[01:36.60]And I believe in a promised land
[02:48.36]There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor
[02:52.40]I packed my bags and I'm heading straight into the storm
[02:56.82]Gonna be a twister to blow everything down
[03:00.80]That ain't got the faith to stand its ground
[03:05.09]Blow away the dreams that tear you apart
[03:09.01]Blow away the dreams that break your heart
[03:13.12]Blow away the lies that leave you nothing but lost and brokenhearted
[03:21.45]The dogs on main street howl
[03:23.63]'Cause they understand
[03:25.12]If I could take one moment into my hands
[03:29.66]Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
[03:34.02]And I believe in a promised land
[03:38.44]And I believe in a promised land
[03:42.58]And I believe in a promised land
