Lyrics

[00:19.42] Take a plane through the skies
[00:21.69] Touch down, step out, squint your eyes
[00:28.78] Welcome all, shake my hand
[00:31.26] There's not much you understand
[00:38.06] See over here, we are good
[00:40.81] We die younger than we should
[00:47.78] What we make all gets spent
[00:50.32] Better love our President
[00:58.02] They said every road's gonna lead to Rome, but
[01:06.43] You're a long way from home
[01:15.59] But you're a long way from home
[01:25.90] Trade a master for a thief,
[01:28.23] We don't dare wish for relief
[01:35.15] See here we have no safety net
[01:37.79] Even the walls drip with sweat
[01:44.88] So carry 'round a couple bills
[01:47.28] Soldiers massing in the hills
[01:54.31] Prayers start you're out of light
[01:56.76] Where're you gonna stay tonight
[02:04.55] Could it be were separated by a chromosome, 'cause
[02:13.10] You're a long way from home
[02:22.07] 'cause you're a long way from home
[02:51.17] See we don't want to envy you
[02:53.95] But it's just too hard not to
[03:00.69] 'cause we can't leave the same way
[03:03.33] Wish that we could have a day
[03:10.10] To take a plane through the skies
[03:12.83] Touch down, step out, squint eyes
[03:19.80] Take some pictures, maybe learn
[03:22.33] Then be happy to return
[03:30.05] See you where you live
[03:31.82] See you in your Superdome
[03:38.30] And be a long way from home
[03:47.75] And be a long way from home
