Sounds Like America
Lyrics
Take your stand Stan make the bat wave
Swing for the fences so all the folks yell hooray
Ain't rich or good looking, Sundays go to school
You can make it here with a dream
Or something to prove
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Say hey Willie, Roy C too
Stay at the motel down a ways people like you
Pistol Pete boy, he can sure shoot
Like Bonnie and Clyde on a holiday in Saint Lou
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
2 lane highway, coastal byway, train tresel through
Yellow school bus route, crossing guard shield, ballfields
Grocer, laundry, courthouse jury, cop on a beat down,
Gospel choir with their knees down and everyone's a refugee
Songs of the free, alms for the poor, cheerleaders and whores
Protest and war, a little is more, muscle cars outside hardware store.
There's baseballs, ice skates, kisses, mistakes, hammers and drills
Deer for the kill to mount on the wall, give me a call
Don't forget your fishing pole
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sing your song John for all the boys named Sue
Our king lived near the river where the steamboat whistles blew
Martin Luther, hey you ladies too, keep walking to the bridge
It's getting closer soon
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Take your stand Stan make the bat wave
Swing for the fences so all the folks yell hooray
Ain't rich or good looking, Sundays go to school
You can make it here with a dream
Or something to prove
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Say hey Willie, Roy C too
Stay at the motel down a ways people like you
Pistol Pete boy, he can sure shoot
Like Bonnie and Clyde on a holiday in Saint Lou
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
2 lane highway, coastal byway, train tresel through
Yellow school bus route, crossing guard shield, ballfields
Grocer, laundry, courthouse jury, cop on a beat down,
Gospel choir with their knees down and everyone's a refugee
Songs of the free, alms for the poor, cheerleaders and whores
Protest and war, a little is more, muscle cars outside hardware store.
There's baseballs, ice skates, kisses, mistakes, hammers and drills
Deer for the kill to mount on the wall, give me a call
Don't forget your fishing pole
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sing your song John for all the boys named Sue
Our king lived near the river where the steamboat whistles blew
Martin Luther, hey you ladies too, keep walking to the bridge
It's getting closer soon
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
Sounds Like America
