The Pogues
The Pogues - Every Man Is A King songtekst
Je score:
In search of a good life the Pilgrims set sail Then all through the new land they blazed their brave trails The iron horse speeding down freshly-laid rails Brought settlers determined to prosper From the far corners they made it their home The ities and germans, the paddies the poles Goin' down in the dirt comin' up with the gold Like Bill Fuller, the Kennedys and Corleones Life is so good in the US of A Live out you dreams in Amerikay If you've gut the guts and the bucks, it is said Every man is a king in the US of A Every man is a king in Amerikay The pilgrims these days they are called astronauts They seek new battlefields on the moon and beyond To wage their star wars in the sky by-and-by And to shit on us all from on high Then when it's all over and the world is no more When the White House and Kremlin have settled their score The stars and stripes flag will fly high, proud out there in space And that's why we all love the United States In the land of Republican automatons Uncle Sam's forces so gung-ho and bronzed Just waiting their orders from Washington To fight for your peace and your freedom Vietnam, Nicaragua, El Salvador How foolish of you not to open your doors To the Hersheys, Budweisers, McDonalds and more..... This wonderful life could be yours
