lyrics

Almost out of groceries
Almost out of gas
Ain’t got the heart to tell her
We’re almost out of cash
Been a long night
Three more days to go
Pile on the blankets ‘cause
It’s starting to look like snow

Everything moves slow here
in Rapid City

Summer ain’t all that great
But it’s harder when it’s cold
We’ve only just begun
Shouldn’t feel this damn old
Mark the calendar
Times are getting tough
It’s a waiting game
And it’s never quite enough

Everything moves slow here
in Rapid City

Where do you find hope
When it’s already behind you
And the wolves at the door
Always seem to find you?

Lady at my front door
Encouraging me to vote
But the false promises
Stick like a bone in the throat
People asking me
To choose red or blue
But that hope and change stuff
Ain’t for folks like me and you

Everything moves slow here
in Rapid City
