lyrics

You're a hard wood floor
a cement wall
you're the knocking at my door
when I can't get up
out of bed

by the dawn's early light
again I cry
god damn, America
you were pretty once
but look at you now

you were apple pie
you were baseball games
you were nights beneath the stars
now all you are
is the crying shame
the drives us to the bar

why am I still in love with you
I'm red and white
but most of all I'm blue
god damn, america

you're a foreclosed home
you lost your soul
and you're headed south
leaving us here
in the cold

by the twilight's last gleaming
I'm screaming
god damn, america
you were pretty once
but look at you now

you were classic cars
you were rock and roll
a raging river roar
now all you are
is the gaping hole
where all our spirits soar

why am I still in love with you
I'm red and white
but most of all I'm blue
god damn, America
