  • (kinky friedman)
  • Faded jaded falling cowboy star,
  • Pawnshops itching for your old guitar.
  • Where youre going, God only knows,
  • The sequins have fallen from your clothes.
  • Once you heard the opry crowd applaud,
  • Now youre hanging out at fourth and broad
  • On the rain wet sidewalk remembering the time
  • When coffee with a friend was still a dime.
  • And everythings been sold american,
  • The early times is finished and the want ads all are read.
  • Everyones been sold american
  • In dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed.
  • Writing down your memoirs on some window in the frost,
  • Roulette eyes reflecting another morning lost.
  • Hauled in by the metro for killing time and pain
  • With a singing brakeman screaming through your veins.
  • And everythings been sold american,
  • The lonely night is mourning for the death it never dies.
  • Everyones been sold american
  • Dont let me catch you laughing when the jukebox cries.
  • You told me you were born so much higher than life,
  • But Ive seen the faded pictures of your children and your wife.
  • Now theyre fumbling through your wallet and theyre trying to find your name,
  • Its almost like they raise the price of fame.
  • And everythings been sold american,
  • No place to go and brother, no place to stay.
  • Everyones been sold american
  • Just let that golden greyhound roll your soul away.
