I'm for wildflowers in the window Mechanics you can trust I'm for crackers in my chili And leavin' grudges in the dust I'm for drive thru order takers Who can muster up a smile I'm for takin' in that stray dog That's been hangin' 'round for awhile I'm for turning off the TV Gettin' off the internet I'm for learning all the words To the Gettysburg Address I'm for dusty pawn shop guitars And boxers pa**ed their prime I'm for soakin' up the wisdom When an old man speaks his mind. I'm for laid off factory workers When the wolf is at the door You don't have to guess what I'm against If you know what I'm for I'm for Texas Margaritas Gettin' outta debt I'm for havin' faith in something
That hasn't happened yet For the shy kid in the corner Afraid to ask the girl to dance For the ex-con outta prison Who just wants a second chance For the inner city teacher With her heart stuck in her throat Can still see God in every child And never gives up hope I'm for dusty pawn shop guitars And boxers pa**ed their prime I'm for soakin' up the wisdom When and old man speaks his mind I'm for Detroit factory workers When the wolf is at the door You don't have to guess what I'm against If you know what I'm for I'm counting all my blessings When the wolf is at my door You don't have to ask what I'm against You don't have to guess what I'm against
