Isaac Parker - americana

White washed fences round front porch lights
Tossing rocks at the railroad ties
Red meat grilling, lemonade, July ninth
Passing time under blue summer skies
I hide you seek in the abandoned lot
Making everything we couldn't have bought
Falling asleep to Bible stories told
Growing up before you ever grow old
Oh a Rockwell picnic painting
But the front porch swing is breaking
Americana
Don't you wanna get out of here
Americana
Don't you wanna just disappear
We can keep on running no red lights
Till we see the future is all blue skies
Americana
Don't you wanna
Neon cities and palm tree signs
So many wonders beneath flashing lights
Swimming through strangers you'll never see again
But they see you, and they know you, and you know them
With the glitz and the glam and the fashion
We're not in Hollywood but everybody's acting
Like a bored housewife or starlet gold
Do the kids really want to take control?
Americana don't you wanna get out of here
Americana don't you wanna just disappear
We can keep on running no red lights
Till we see the future is all blue skies
Americana don't you wanna
Little Amber got lost in fields of grain
Little Amber wouldn't be lost if she stayed in the plains
