American Dream |
| I lit the fire, poured out the bottle |
| Asked the moonlight what it might have seen |
| If we danced, I can’t remember |
| I fell down into the American Dream |
| Been too long in the Devil’s workshop |
| So I’m driving the backbone to change the scenery |
| Here come the horses through purgatory |
| They fell down into the American Dream |
| Summer time sunshine, shine on me |
| Show me where I’m going |
| I’ll find an old friend in El Dorado |
| Like Harry Dean Stanton on a drive-in screen |
| A tumbleweed blowing through Paris, Texas |
| He fell down into the American Dream |
| Sun-bleached dresses wavin' from a clothesline |
| Come Saturday evening, they’ll have a place to be |
| I’ll pick some flowers to take to her Mama |
| I fell down into the American Dream |
| Summer time sunshine, shine on me |
| Won’t you show me where I’m goin'? |
| Leaving San Francisco for New Orleans |
| I can hear that rooster crowin' |
| Spit and polish the ancient story |
| Love and glory, gold and greed |
| Nothing changes, even if it wants to |
| We go down into the American Dream |
| We go down, baby |
| On down to New Orleans |
| Down, baby |
| Only finding what it means |
