Luyện nghe bài hát Americana

America, the of the free, the home of the brave
That's what I thought before I there
You see, I've got being seduced by the sheer americana of it all
And I'd their images on television
Of lee harvey oswald, john f. kennedy's
And I "america is a violent place"
And is keen to trap you
Like you had giant tentacles that wrapped themselves you
Until you couldn't move and you trapped
The land of the free, the home of the brave, and the wild west

Hey big fat cowboy, wearing your big
Hey big fat cowboy, your big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, country & western
Hey big fat cowboy, is this the way that the west was yeah

I found in the back of a big ford thunderbird
With a dude
He looked like a from a b-movie,
The sort of punk that would everybody off
lee marvin put a bullet through his brain
The punk over at me
"kinks? what kind of a motherfuckin' name is "
Then he over and picked up the car telephone
"hey kid, got elvis presley's phone number.
I've got ann-margret's number. I've fucked ann-margret!"
I mick avory would be impressed with this, but I was not
And then the punk over at me
"i'll dial elvis presley" he dialed a
"hey, is that you elvis? I speak to the colonel.
to it, you mother!"
And then he over at me in a menacing way,
Reached the glove-compartment and took out a revolver
He waved the six gun around,
"you see kid, when I deal with people, they to treat me right,
they contend with this! a gun!
Have you ever a gun before? "
I
he waved it around, put it back in the glove-compartment
"welcome to peoria, illinois, of middle america,
Ice-cream and pie, guns and the wild west"

All american wise guy, why achieve that in the sun
Hamburger and a milkshake, all dude
and a t-bone, hot dog with a big smile
And a bad attitude, yeah yeah

Flying across america on a twa, flying to
To appear on television, our new record set me free
The were met by a union man with a contract to sign
And the didn't like signing contracts
"hey, are you the kinks? sign this piece of guys!
I want you to sign union-document so you can appear on television"
"no mate, we don't wanna sign a contract"
"you to sign, otherwise you cannot appear"
"we want to sign a piece of paper, alright!"
"listen kid, you the piece of paper.
You with your red jackets and your yellow frilly shirts.
the piece of paper!"
"do you wanna sign it? " he looked over at
"watcha do kid? " "fuck off!"
Which is a reasonable thing to say in the circumstances,
But not very wise, you see, the man was a executive
"alright. once I my report on you guys
never gonna work in america again.
You're gonna find out how powerful it is in america!"
The land of ice-cream and apple pie, guns and the west

Great american union with the fist, a smile and a gun
Great american napalm up the sky like the sun
Great american eagle swoops down the sky up above

And I the images of lee harvey oswald
on tv saying he was a patsy
A man is a-framin' the kinks
While I "this is the land of opportunity"
But the cosa nostra are
Land of and apple pie

Hey big fat cowboy, that big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, singing country &
Hey big fat cowboy, that big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, is this the way the west was won?
Yeah yeah

And 6 weeks later robert and grenville and
Were sitting in their office in street
And the letter came from the government
It was from the american of musicians union
"a band as the kinks,
The beat group known as the kinks,
Are from america.
Their license to has been revoked indefinitely"
Yeah, all the same off
In the land of the ice-cream and pie, guns and the wild west
