WILLIE NELSON lyrics : "Heartland"

[ with Bob Dylan ]

There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland

And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
There's a big achin' hole in my chest now where my
heart was

And a hole in the sky where God used to be
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can

drink
Ain't no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I
can't speak

Don't they know that I'm dyin' why's nobody
cryin' for me
My American dream fell apart at the seams

You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
[ guitar ]
There's a home place under fire tonight in a heartland

And bankers are taking the homes and the land away
There's a young boy closin' his eyes tonight in a
heartland

Who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't
pay
His American dream fell apart at the seams

You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
My American dream...
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland

There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the

heartland
