Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well my Daddy doesn't know it My Mama doesn't care My husband doesn't show it But he's hardly ever here I reach out and I grab it Hold it in my hand sometimes But most nights find me drinking In this bar with friends of mine [Verse 2] I was born in San Francisco Nineteen sixty eight Then Mom and Daddy headed north Beyond the Golden Gate Out of that foggy city To these mountains and these streams Driving their old pickup truck Into this new American dream [Chorus] But it was their dream It was their dream [Verse 3] Let me take you on a ride In my Eldorado Ford Up along thе old dirt road To the wild river gorge And thеn back up to the ocean Where the sun sets on Point Reyes We'll laugh at mostly nothing It will take up most the day [Chorus] It was their dream, but it's my life now It was their dream, but it's my life [Verse 4] Well now me and my husband Johnny We get along okay I'm at the bar all night And he's down at work all day When I shut that door behind me And I'm walking out the gate I can hear the screen door slamming And my heart begins to break [Chorus] But it was their dream, it's my life now It was their dream, but it's my life It was their dream, even though I'm proud It was their dream [Verse 5] Well I got my little baby She means the world to me And I got my Eldorado And I got the deep blue sea I got a feeling when you're coming through next time And you look for me I'll be long gone Yeah, that's where I'll be [Chorus] 'Cause it was their dream, it's my life now It was their dream, but it's my life It was their dream, and even though I'm proud It was their dream [Verse 6] Well my Daddy doesn't know it My Mama doesn't care My husband doesn't show it But he's hardly ever here I reach out and I grab it Hold it in my hand sometimes But most nights find me drinking In this bar with friends of mine [Chorus] It was their dream, but it's my life now It was their dream, but it's my life It was their dream, even though I'm proud It was their dream
