American Dreamer - Laura Nyro

作词：L Nyro

作曲：L Nyro

Autumns child is catching hell

For having been too nave to tell

Property rights from chapel bells

There's nothing we can do

We could not get there in time

It's too late

She signed on the dotted line

Oh shoot em up cops and robbers

Oh America

The manager smiled

He said

We're gonna straighten this mess

He had a picture of Spot

And Jane on his desk

So I signed his strange contract

With the transparent lines

There's nothing we can do

We could not get there in time

It's too late she signed on the dotted line

Oh shoot em up cops and robbers

Oh America America

The lawyers cried through the telephone rings

The doctors sighed She's imagining things

When he came through

The window with those crazy eyes

Dick Tracy in disguise

He said You need a guiding hand

You're soft and you're fine

Sign here on the dotted line

Oh big deals cops and robbers

Oh America

I am your rose American dreamer

Flying high and down through America

Oh

Oh American dreamer oh America

Didn't you know American dreamer

Flying high and down through America

America America America America
