Testo di Mistress American

There was a song you used to play Before they drove you away But I remember every stroke Of every chord you played In the room they gave the band I thought I heard you say That rock 'n' roll's the perfect scare There's a crime that doesn't pay But for mistress America I'm gonna get a gun And learn the words to all of your songs Mistress America, smile for the camera I think we're gonna make it this timе Think we're gonna be finе And I had never prayed before But if it keeps the devil from your door I'll kneel down and bruise my knees And with your hard magnolia floors 'Cause I thought I saw the light But it was just a satellite station Just another human creation Where you gonna run to now? Oh, well mistress America I'm gonna get a gun And learn the words to all of your songs Mistress America, smile for the camera I think we're gonna make it this time Think we're gonna be fine Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Oh, well mistress America I'm gonna get a gun And learn the words to all of your songs Mistress America, smile for the camera I think we're gonna make it this time Think we're gonna be fine Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where de we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now? Where do we run to now?
