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 myself being seduced by the americana of it all
And I'd seen their images on
Of lee harvey oswald, john f. kennedy's
And I "america is a violent place"
And america is keen to you
Like you had giant that wrapped themselves around you
Until you couldn't move and you were
The of the free, the home of the brave, guns and the wild west

Hey big fat cowboy, wearing big stetson
Hey big fat cowboy, your big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, singing & western
Hey big fat cowboy, is this the way that the was won? yeah

I found myself in the back of a big ford
With a dude
He looked like a from a b-movie,
The sort of that would piss everybody off
Until lee marvin put a bullet his brain
The punk over at me
"kinks? kind of a motherfuckin' name is that? "
Then he reached and picked up the car telephone
"hey kid, I've got presley's phone number.
I've got ann-margret's phone number. fucked ann-margret!"
I knew mick would be impressed with this, but I was not
And then the punk over at me
"i'll dial elvis presley" he a number
"hey, is that you elvis? I speak to the colonel.
to it, you mother!"
And then he looked over at me in a way,
Reached into the and took out a revolver
He the six gun around, menacingly
"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
Then he waved it around, put it back in the
"welcome to peoria, illinois, home of america,
Ice-cream and apple pie, guns and the west"

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

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

Great american rules with the fist, a smile and a gun
Great napalm lights up the sky like the sun
Great american eagle down from the sky up above

And I remember the images of lee oswald
Appearing on tv saying he was a
A union man is a-framin' the
I thought "this is the land of opportunity"
But the cosa nostra are
Land of ice-cream and 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 the way that the west was won?
Yeah yeah

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