0:18My darling my dear
0:21I tell you what is wrong
0:25I went to the mountain
0:28But the mountain top was gone
0:32Remember those trees
0:35Where as kids we dreamed
0:39They tore em down years ago
0:42And built a factory
0:46And when that plant closed
0:49The workers all left town
0:53I read in the paper that
0:55Some kids were killed
0:56When it burnt down
1:00Now I stare at that field
1:02Like circle in the earth
1:07And nothing’ll grow now
1:09That’s not soil
1:10It’s just dirt
1:12And I cant stand it
1:15What’s the use in making something new
1:21If all that made us must be ruined
1:25I cant demand it
1:28I got nothing but
1:30Mounting debt and fear
1:34I scratch my head wondering
1:38How we got here
1:41America
1:43American
1:45What are we doing
1:48America
1:50I am American
1:52Please can we start again
2:02Mountaintop removal
2:05Shames our name
2:10Darling my dear
2:12I tell you what is right
2:17The moon on the lake
2:19And swimming by its light
2:23Darling my dear
2:26I tell you what is wrong
2:30I went to the mountain
2:32But the mountain top was gone
2:35And I cant stand it
2:38What’s the use in making something new
2:44If all that made us must be ruined
2:49I cant demand shit
2:52I got nothing
2:54But mounting debt and fear
2:58We scratch our heads
3:00Wondering how we got here
3:05America
3:07Americans
3:09What are we doing
3:12America
3:13I am American
3:15Please can we start again
3:33America
3:34Americans
3:36Think of your children
3:40America
3:41Americans
3:43What th’hell are we doin’
4:50And darlin’ my dear
4:52I tell you what is wrong
4:56I went to the mountain
4:59But the mountain top was gone
5:04Mountaintop removal
5:08Shames our name
