All Across America

She called him up on the telephone

She said to him, “I’m feeling alone.”

All night long you could hear them moan

All across America

Late that night she did dream

That he would marry me

Few things are what they seem

All across America

Love ain’t bad.

Love is good.

Love her like you

know you should.

Be loving him,

if you could

All across America.

Early morning, crack of dawn

Holding him in her arms

Poof like smoke, love is gone

All across America

Sure was fun, wish you well

Making him feel like a cheap hotel

Blinking lights, love for sell

All across America

Love ain’t bad.

Love is good.

Love her like you

know you should.

Be loving him,

if you could

All across America.

What is real ain’t ideal

I don’t know what it is I feel

Everything’s a business deal

All across America

Was it her or was it him

I just want to be your friend

Let’s not do this again and again

All across America

Love ain’t bad.

Love is good.

Love her like you

know you should.

Be loving him,

if you could

All across America.
