Reckless Kelly - Pennsylvania Avenue Lyrics






To whom it may concern
Whoever's takin' away for the next turn
Don't you think we could do a little better than
The way it's goin' down
I'll give you four good years just to turn it around
And if you don't I'll take it into my own hands

And I'm gonna build my house up on Pennsylvania Avenue
Gonna raise my flag for all to see
And I'm gonna make my stand up on Pennsylvania Avenue
Mama told me I can be anything I wanna be

What about a man's worth and what it used to mean
Before the radio waves and the big screen
And now you talk about hard work and a steady hand
We put our trust in you, you better stick to the plan

Or I'm gonna build my house up on Pennsylvania Avenue
Gonna raise my flag for all to see
And I'm gonna make my stand up on Pennsylvania Avenue
'Cuz Mama told me I can anything I wanna be

And we learned about hard times and the American Dream
Heard about the Dust Bowl and the war machines
And we read about generals on the battlefields
We put our trust in them to make our deals
Up on Pennsylvania Avenue

I'm gonna build my house up on Pennsylvania Avenue
Gonna raise my flag for all to see
And I'm gonna make my stand up on Pennsylvania Avenue
'Cuz Mama told me I can be anything I wanna be
Yeah Mama told me I can be anything I wanna be

  1. V.... R....

  2. H.... _....

    You guys are true country music main stream should take some lessons from real dudes!

  3. J.... B....

    Awesome song

  4. B.... P....

    Thanks for being true to yourself!

  5. M.... R....

    Gotta love The Horseshoe Lounge

  6. R.... R....

    It's a really good song.

  7. m.... ....

    I hate when good bands turn out to be low information voters. Obama? Really?! It's because of idiots like this that we're in the situation we're in...

    m.... ....

    Obama was the only one you noticed go back and count jow many Democrat presidents are in this video. Right from the beginning i counted 3 in the first min of the song. Go back and realize how many Republican presidents arent in this video

  8. j.... ....

    Because Reagan screwed the little guy but fooled people like you into thinking he was a good guy. Great song.

  9. c.... ....

    I love Jay!

  10. 6.... ....

    Right! Right here in Texas of all places.

  11. H.... H....

    Did anyone notice all Obama was doing is walking, talking, and thinking? No action!

  12. E.... J....

    I am mildly annoyed by Jay as the "unemployed" bartender. Since when is serving beer to the likes of Willy not work? Otherwise, smiles all around for the overall message.

  13. J.... L....

    I Have so much respect for these guys..

  14. M.... P....

    Chevy's and Dodges are made in Mexico, Toyotas are made here, that's ironic

  15. S.... L....

    I LOVE you guys!!!

  16. O.... ....

    I just barley heard of this band and love this song, and I never expected the singer to look like this

  17. 6.... ....

    Right on keep the country boy alive.

  18. K.... C....

    Take a stand on P. Ave. that's hilarious.

  19. J.... A....

    cause the lyrics are about presidents who screwed the people over

  20. B.... S....

    I like the song, but Carter is in the video and multiple shots of Obama but zero of Reagan? Come on.

    B.... S....

    Republicans have been the problem for the working american.

    Buy a clue.

    Nixon led to Reagan and Newt and Drudge and now that traitorous monster Trump.

    Last good one was Ike and I call myself an Eisenhower Democrat.

  21. t.... ....

    Maybe if that guy wasn't driving a foreign car we'd all have a little more money...

  22. n.... c....

    Earl dibbles jr. For president

  23. w.... ....

    Another fantastic RK song and video!

  24. j.... ....

    Love it ..there baddass

  25. C.... S....

    Can't tell you how much I agree with thus song and how much I like it. I've been a Reckless fan since my Sr year in 06 and these guys just keep getting better and better. Keep it up guys

  26. w.... ....
