Looking For America

Took a trip to San Francisco

All our friends said we would jive

Didn't work so I left for Fresno

It was quite a scenic drive

Pulled over to watch the children in the park

We used to only worry for them after dark

I'm still looking for my own version of America

One without the gun where the flag can freely fly

No bombs in the sky only fireworks when you and I collide

It's just a dream I had in mind

It's just a dream I had in mind

It's just a dream I had in mind

I flew back to New York City

Missed that Hudson River line

Took a train up to Lake Placid

That's another place and time where

I used to go to drive-ins and listen to the blues

So many things that I think twice about before I do no

I'm still looking for my own version of America

One without the gun where the flag can freely fly

No bombs in the sky only fireworks when you and I collide

It's just a dream I had in mind

It's just a dream I had in mind

It's just a dream I had in mind

It's just a dream I had in mind
