Moon shining down through the palms Shadows moving on the sand Somebody whispering the twenty-third psalm Dusty rifle in his trembling hands Somebody trying just to stay alive He got promises to keep Over the ocean in america Far away and fast asleep Silent stars blinking in the blackness of an endless sky Cold silver satellites, ghostly caravans passing by Galaxies unfolding, new worlds being born Pilgrims and prodigals creeping toward the dawn But it's a long road out of eden Music blasting from an suv On a bright and sunny day Rolling down the interstate In the good ol' usa Having lunch at the petroleum club Smokin' fine cigars and swappin' lives He said: "gimme 'nother slice o' that barbecued brisket!"
