Drive-By Truckers - Aftermath USA
About as patriotic as I can get for that place south of the border.

If I could have one wish right now
I’d be about as half as tough as I pretend I am
Then I wouldn’t care how empty this old house feels
I could take her things and take them far away from here
I could make sure no dirt ever got on her name
Cause looking at that stone wouldn’t bring me so much pain
I could go into town wearing my finest clothes
I could turn these tears into blood and make it run ice cold
Space City’s one hour up the road from me
One hour away from as close to the moon as anybody down here is ever gonna be
And somewhere beyond that big white light is where my heart is gone
And somewhere she’s wondering what’s taking me so long
My hands are as good to me as they’ve ever been
And I ain’t ashamed of anything my hands ever did
But sometimes the words I used were as hard as my fist
She had the strength of a man and the heart of a child, I guess
Space City’s one hour up the road from me
One hour away from as close to the moon as anybody down here is ever gonna be
And somewhere beyond that big white light is where my heart is gone
And somewhere she’s wondering what’s taking me so long

Flowers flying cross the room
Vases smashed against the floor
Said “I’d rather be alone
Take your chocolates and go home”
Be my valentine
They say time makes things easier but only time will tell
You said we’d go the distance but I guess it’s just as well
You’re blossoming all over while I whither on the line
I just called to tell you that “I hope you’re doing fine”
Be my valentine

So I’ll meet you at the bottom if there really is one
They always told me when you hit it you’ll know it
But I’ve been falling so long it’s like gravity’s gone and I’m just floating

The die-hards will truly appreciate this, video quality be damned.
