Us Government — Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

I spit my faith on the city pavement To keep a smile I bought my legs from the US Government To keep me in line

We are the ones that keep you down We are the ones that warm the ground While our arms surround

I filled my head with another replacement To keep me high I shot my soul when you wanted to take it Your worst ain't mine

We are the ones that keep you high We are the ones that warm the sky And you're burning bright

She's my river of sunshine, she's my girl She can save the US and save the world She's alright I'll be fine There's no US Save your mind Save your mind Come on!

I'll give you nothing if you're just gonna waste it But that's alright I'll give you love if you wanting the taste that That leaves it behind

We are the ones that keep you high We are the ones that burn your pride And you're burning bright

You're gonna make it You're gonna suffer

I've been waiting for the sun to come Lead me through the gates of Rome You're gonna know they were never Never yours to kill Oh no they were never Never yours to kill

I've been waiting for the sun to come Show you all what's being done You're gonna know they were never Never yours to kill Oh no they were never Never yours to kill
