Long Is The Road (USA)

In the world we don't know, made of deserts and pain

Where despite all the faith, needs of screamings remain

For whatever you do, efforts are all in vain

You are doomed from the start, maybe God is to blame

In the bundle he packs, nothing more than a dream

Of a country where earth is not dirt but all clean

He's so poor and so young, he's got nothing to lose

Just the piece of his mind, but no way he can choose

There's a treasure he keeps very close to his heart

It's the paper that says he's allowed a new start



But long is the road, hard is the way

Heavy my lord but deep is my faith, long is the road



And the California scene with a girl in blue jeans

Chevy's a goal with a bar and a phone

Give up your pride to be on the right side

Cash is the key and each hope has a fee

And Hollywood's a proof of the price

Lift up the hood, truth is not very nice

But no one cares bout the cheat and the lies

If there is gold, they'll give in till they die



But long is the road, hard is the way

Heavy my lord but deep is my faith, long is the road



Got my shoes, got my head, nothing to lose, oh my lord

Got my faith, got my lord and I pray.
