Laura Nyro - American DreamerLyrics

Autumn's child is catchin' hell For having been too naïve to tell Property rights from chapel bells There's nothing we can do We could not get there in time It's too late She signed on the dotted line? oh, shoot 'em up Cops and robbers Oh, America The manager smiled He said, we're gonna straighten This mess He had a picture of Spot And Jane on his desk So I signed his strange contract With the transparent lines There's nothing we can do We could not get there in time It's too late She signed on the dotted line? Oh, shoot 'em up Cops and robbers Oh, America The lawyers cried Through the telephone rings The doctors sighed She's imagining things When he came through the window With those crazy eyes Dick Tracy in disguise He said, you need a guiding Hand You're soft and you're fine Sign here on the dotted line Oh, big deals Cops and robbers Oh, America I am your rose American dreamer Flyin' high And down through America Didn't you know American dreamer Flyin' high And down through America America America
