I'm not the king of America I've got a blue collar heart
Put together with rusted old bolts and discarded radio parts
Just a kid from Gainesville watching Petty with my lighter in the dark - yeah
I've done all the wrong things for all the right reasons
And all the right things in all the wrong seasons
I'm just like you man, ain't it an uphill fight yeah
Tonight I'm singing a brand new song on an old guitar
And they keep telling me you won't get to far, but
But I know who I am and I know who you are--yeah
We're simple men who love complicated women
Dealt loosing hands but we still think we're winning
Add it all up and it don't seem like much but it's something
Something to believe in yeah
Something to believe in can I get an amen yeah - yeah
So we'll go home and we'll put our kids to bed
Rock and roll dreams rumble around in our heads
And I'll even thank the Lord for our daily bread yeah--yeah
Then we'll agree to disagree and I'll even slam the door
Hey baby at least we got a love worth fighting for
And I'll tell you I'm sorry and I'll come crawling back for more yeah - yeah
Cause I'm a simple man who loves a complicated woman
Nothing else in my life I wish I was doing,
Add it all up and it don't seem like much but it's something
Something to believe in yeah
Something to believe in can I get an amen yeah - aw yeah
Pretty soon we'll all be leaving here
Tomorrow morning this night will disappear
Maybe this song can be a souvenir of something
Something to believe in yeah
To believe in can I get an amen yeah - yeah
Something to believe in
Hold on to that feeling
To believe in yeah - oooh
Hold on, hold on
