I dont know a soul whos not been battered
I dont have a friend who feels at ease
I dont know a dream thats not been shattered
Or driven to its knees
Oh, but its all right, its all right
For lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the road
Were traveling on
I wonder what went wrong
I cant help it, I wonder whats gone wrong
And I dreamed I was dying
And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
Oh, we come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the ages most uncertain hour
And sing an American tune
Oh, its all right, its all right
Its all right, its all right
You cant be forever blessed
Still, tomorrows going to be another working day
And Im trying to get some rest
Thats all Im trying to get some rest
I dont have a friend who feels at ease
I dont know a dream thats not been shattered
Or driven to its knees
Oh, but its all right, its all right
For lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the road
Were traveling on
I wonder what went wrong
I cant help it, I wonder whats gone wrong
And I dreamed I was dying
And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
Oh, we come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the ages most uncertain hour
And sing an American tune
Oh, its all right, its all right
Its all right, its all right
You cant be forever blessed
Still, tomorrows going to be another working day
And Im trying to get some rest
Thats all Im trying to get some rest

I'll put my trust where I want, not where someone says I should. It's a coin not a holy object.

That's a stupid looking idea for a coin and not even close to historical accurate.

If it does, I expect the ones I see to be accidentally defaced before being returned to circulation. nt

Reminds me that I'm living for the day "In God we trust" is removed from our money.
