Purple Mountain Jamboree - Hard Working Americans

Over bridges made of ashes

From the embers of old flames

I lost my way and then my hope

Now hopefully my shame

All for one free for all

They say no two fall the same

Over bridges made of ashes

Let we all return from where we came

Over ample waves of gain to

Purple Mountain Jamboree

Where we always

Break out in handcuffs

From overexposure to the heat

Ain’t gonna be no tent city shakedown

Holding my wind up with its sail

I’m gonna change my mind in no time

Gonna be back school side

Riding that rail

All for one free for all

Calling all the great unwashed

Over bridges made of ashes

May we all return

To where we’re lost

Over ample waves of gain to

Purple Mountain Jamboree

Where we always

Break out in handcuffs

From overexposure to the heat

All for begging for change in the street

I am all for begging for change in the street
