Lyrics
Faded jaded fallen cowboy star Pawn shops itching for your old guitar Where you've gone, it ain't nobody knows The sequins have fallen from your clothes Once you heard the Opry crowd applaud Now you're hanging out at 4th and Broad On the rain wet sidewalk, remembering the time When coffee with a friend was still a dime Everything's been sold American The early times are finished and the want ads are all read Everyone's been sold American Been 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 You told me you were born so much higher than life I saw the faded pictures of your children and your wife Now they're fumbling through your wallet and they're trying to find your name It's almost like they raised the price of fame Everything's been sold American The early times are finished and the want ads are all read Everyone's been sold American Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed Everything's been sold American The early times are finished and the want ads are all read Everyone's been sold American Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
