Testo Sold American - Glen Campbell
Testo della canzone Sold American (Glen Campbell), tratta dall'album I Knew Jesus (Before He Was A Star)
Faded, jaded, fallen, cowboy star
Pawnshop's itching for your old guitar
Where you go, it ain't nobody knows
Sequins have fallen from your clothes
Once you heard the Opry crowds applaud
Now you're hanging out at Fourth and Broad
On the rain-wet sidewalk remembering the time
When coffee with a friend was still a dime
But everything's been sold American
The early times are finished and the want ads are all read
Everyone's been sold American
Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
Writing down your memoirs on some window in the frost
Roulette eyes reflecting another morning's loss
Hauling by the Metro for killing time and pain
With the singing brakeman screaming through your vein
But everything's been sold American
The early times are finished and the want ads are all read
Everyone's been sold American
Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
You told me you were born so much higher than life
But I've seen the faded pictures of your children and your wife
Now they're thumbing through your wallet
And they're trying to find your name
It's almost like they raised the price of fame
But everything's been sold American
The early times are finished and the want ads are all read
Everyone's been sold American
Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
