Well, the worst that I could get there Was the lead in my gut But the worst that you can give me Is this lead in my cup I might be all washed up But I'm a pretty good man Sure, I'm hard as a nail But I will sell you the blood on my hands I'm looking at you (Tell me what do you see) I'm looking at you (And I won't go away) In the light of the star spangled evening In the name of the red white and blue My Daddy said "A man has Got to fight to be free" Tucked his slogans in the bed There with my brothers and me He'd be prouder now If I had never come home I wear the shoes and the clothes And the crown of the soldier unknown I'm looking at you You say give me a break I say show me you're broken My lame and legless comrades have spoken Say jump in a lake I say you got to be jokin' Where I come from the lake is smokin' I will labor for your wages For the cash of the realm I will tell you all my stories You can write em down But you can save your tears For the names on the wall I'm a living reminder that Pride comes before a fall I'm looking at you
