Kid Rock - Times Like These lyrics
[Kid Rock - Times Like These lyrics]
The lakes and pines they bleed
Of beauty and grace
And the rivers they run wild
Like an endless race
The forests soar so high then fall to the sea
As church bells ring and sing in harmony
I heard them say they're
Shutting Detroit down
But I won't leave because this is my hometown
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
The concrete and steel stand
Strong against the wind
With the memories of what was
And what has been the sounds of sweet soul
Music and blue-collar blues
There were 17 colors for a Chevy
All red white and blue
I heard them say that you
Can't save that town
But I won't leave, I will stand my ground
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
The ice and snow give way
To a new spring bloom
In the wake that hope and faith
They will be home soon
A new day dawns as the
Good Lord shines from above
Because in the rubble and rust there
Remains a whole lotta love
And I was here watching it all go down
And I'll still be, when it comes back around
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
Of beauty and grace
And the rivers they run wild
Like an endless race
The forests soar so high then fall to the sea
As church bells ring and sing in harmony
I heard them say they're
Shutting Detroit down
But I won't leave because this is my hometown
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
The concrete and steel stand
Strong against the wind
With the memories of what was
And what has been the sounds of sweet soul
Music and blue-collar blues
There were 17 colors for a Chevy
All red white and blue
I heard them say that you
Can't save that town
But I won't leave, I will stand my ground
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
The ice and snow give way
To a new spring bloom
In the wake that hope and faith
They will be home soon
A new day dawns as the
Good Lord shines from above
Because in the rubble and rust there
Remains a whole lotta love
And I was here watching it all go down
And I'll still be, when it comes back around
And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and
Brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are, in times like these
