Luyện nghe bài hát Americana

America, the land of the free, the home of the
That's what I thought before I toured
You see, I've got myself being seduced by the sheer of it all
And I'd seen images on television
Of lee harvey oswald, john f. assassination
And I thought "america is a place"
And is keen to trap you
Like you had giant tentacles that wrapped around you
Until you move and you were trapped
The land of the free, the home of the brave, guns and the wild

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

I found myself in the of a big ford thunderbird
With a slick-looking
He like a punk from a b-movie,
The sort of punk that would everybody off
Until lee marvin put a bullet through his
The punk looked at me
"kinks? kind of a motherfuckin' name is that? "
he reached over and picked up the car telephone
"hey kid, I've got elvis phone number.
got ann-margret's phone number. I've fucked ann-margret!"
I knew mick avory would be with this, but I was not
And then the punk looked at me
"i'll elvis presley" he dialed a number
"hey, is that you elvis? I wanna to the colonel.
to it, you mother!"
And then he looked at me in a menacing way,
Reached into the glove-compartment and out a revolver
He the six gun around, menacingly
"you see kid, when I deal people, they have to treat me right,
they contend with this! a gun!
Have you seen a gun before? "
I
Then he 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 that gleam in the sun
Hamburger and a milkshake, all american
and a t-bone, hot dog with a big smile
And a bad attitude, yeah yeah

Flying across america on a twa, to california
To appear on television, our new record set me free
The kinks were met by a union man with a to sign
And the kinks didn't like signing
"hey, are you the sign this piece of paper guys!
I you to sign 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 don't want to a piece of paper, alright!"
"listen kid, you sign the of paper.
You with your red hunting jackets and yellow frilly shirts.
Sign the of paper!"
"do you wanna sign it? " he looked at dave
"watcha do kid? " "fuck off!"
Which is a fairly thing to say in the circumstances,
But not wise, you see, the man was a union executive
"alright. once I file my report on you
You're never gonna in america again.
You're gonna find out just how 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 lights up the sky like the sun
Great american eagle swoops down from the sky up

And I remember the of lee harvey oswald
Appearing on tv he was a patsy
A union man is the kinks
While I "this is the land of opportunity"
But the nostra are everywhere
Land of and apple pie

Hey big fat cowboy, wearing big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, country & western
Hey big fat cowboy, moving 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 their in carnaby street
And the letter came the american government
It was from the american federation of musicians
"a band as the kinks,
The english group known as the kinks,
Are from america.
Their to perform has been revoked indefinitely"
Yeah, all the fuck off
In the land of the ice-cream and pie, guns and the wild west
