Artist: Casting Crowns Album: Casting Crowns Track: American Dream
All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul But he's moving on full steam He's chasing the American dream And he's gonna give his family the finer things
Not this time son I've no time to waste Maybe tomorrow we'll have time to play And then he slips into his new BMW And drives farther and farther and farther away
So He works all day and tries to sleep at night He says things will get better; Better in time
And he works and he builds with his own two hands And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands His kingdom stands
His American Dream is beginning to seem More and more like a nightmare With every passing day "Daddy, can you come to my game?" "Oh Baby, please don't work late." Another wasted weekend And they are slipping away
'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night He tells them things will get better It'll just take a little more time
He used to say, "Whoever dies with the most toys wins" But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end I'll take a shack on the rock Over a castle in the sand Now he works all day and cries alone at night It's not getting any better Looks like he's running out of time 'Cause he worked and he built with his own two hands And he poured all he had in a castle made with sand But the wind and the rain are coming crashing in Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands His kingdom stands
All they really wanted was You All they really wanted was You All they really wanted was You
