Indigo Girls - Play It Again Sam lyrics

Well we read best selling novels So we can talk between the lines And we often close our eyes Just to hide the dollar signs And we're suddenly pretentious And conform with the stream We're born and bred believers In the american dream And we drink our whiskey straight Though we do not like the taste And we dress in obligations With a top hat show of haste And we hinder our reactions As we measure what we say Until someone starts to cry And the faces turn away again Play it again sam Take it slow and easy Sing about the land of the brave And the home of the free And there's a man who will tip you Better than you've gotten yet If you play us a happy song And help us forget Play it again sam Well we donate to our charities To deduct our future taxes And we flock to bars for drinking Though one never quite relaxes And we compromise our standards If it means we'll get attention And the things we need the most to say Are the things we never mention Play it again sam Take it slow and easy Sing about the land of the brave And the home of the free And there's a man who will tip you Better than you've gotten yet If you play us a happy song And help us all forget Play it again sam Now i know god is up in heaven It's hard to keep in mind Sometimes when you're searching for relief And hell is all you find And i know that i'm a romantic I might seem a fool to say I'm know i'm going to see a few hands joined Before my dying day Play it again sam Take it slow and easy Sing about the land of the brave And the home of the free And there's a man who will tip you Better than you've gotten yet Just play us a happy song And help us all forget Play it again sam Play it again sam Play it again sam
