American Refugee
Music and lyrics
Cynthia Pack copyright
A rusty gate and a broken pistol
A load of crap for your media gristmill
Meat and potatoes and a pound of Crisco
Hallelujah to the NFL
You got fentanyl and Bud to drown your sorrows
Who give a damn about tomorrow
Going shopping do I need to panic?
A carton of milk and an automatic
Home of the free and land of the brave
Travis Bickle are you talking to me?
Whoa, whoa , whoa, whoa
American refugee
East coast, west coast liberal elitists
Can only agree that you’re both defeatists
Meanwhile MAGA and the south’s gonna rise again
I‘ve got a healthy respect for the blues and Elvis
Jump and swing and Loretta Lynn
Surf and twang and Kurt Cobain
The music’s coursing through my veins
Don’t give a damn about politicians
The New York times gives me double vision.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
American refugee
Bridge DCA
You’re not really number one
The world police or the rising sun
There’s a whole lot of good and a whole lot of evil in everyone
Just keep in mind that the Earth keeps spinning
Whether or not you are in it.
Life’s a song so just keep on picking and grinning
To the USA I said goodbye
From JFK to PMI
Whoa , whoa, whoa, whoa
American refugee
