Lyrics

One step - two steps

Out in the prairie I met the Hurricane
At least that was his name .
Said he owned that little piece of dirt
Till the great depression came .

Early one morning on that fateful day in 1934
They drove him out to the county limits
Said : ? Don?t you come back no more ?.

It?s kinda sad , how things are working .
It?s kinda bad being treated this a way

Last night I dreamed again
That dream I had before
Everytime I lay my body down ,
I find myself on the floor .

That same old dream is driving me now
Up against the wall .
Anytime I throw a fit ,
Other people have a ball .

It?s kinda sad ?

One step straight up
Two steps back down
For heavens sake
Gimme a break

Sometimes I?m a wondering
Where all my faith has gone
I guess I let it slip away
Like a piece of soap on the run

Help me stand against the wind
That?s a knocking hard onto my knee
I called on Mr. Zodiac
But he never did a thing for me .

It?s kinda sad ?

One step straight up ,
Twelve steps back down ?
