mama don't sleep well
she worries 'bout the kids all night
and the kids don't eat well
they worry 'bout the mama so they hustle on the side
and daddy workin' three jobs
the sweat keeps drippin' in the buffalo sunshine
so he drives that car
promises someday
mama
we will be all right
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
down
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
down
sister's got a new car
no new friends
she got money in the bank
and every day she works hard
she plays hard
baby knows how to drink
her brother's in a bad place
takes prescriptions for pain to keep his demons at bay
so she
so she drives that car
promises
brother
someday we will be all right
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
down
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
down
woah-oh
woah-oh
woah-oh
every day
i pray and i pray
feel like the rain always stayin'
every day
i pray and i pray
i pray that i find my way
every day
i pray and i pray
feel like the rain always stayin'
every day
i pray and i pray
i gotta find an escape
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
down
and i'll be fine to get my feet on solid ground
at times it feels like quicksand
quicksand's pullin' me down
down
