Do You Remember The Americans
(Stephen Stills)
Standin' by a snowdrift in the pale
moonlight
Hitchhikin' west on a highway at night
Tryin' to get to Frisco, lookin'for my
girl
Here comes a trucker, hope he don't
mind my long curls
I remember years ago hitchin' this
same road
Never saw a trucker leave a man out in
the cold
No riders sign on the window never meant
a thing
Nowadadys they just roll on lookin'
kind of mean
Kind of makes me wonder, scratch my
head and kick the snow
Four years overseas who are these
strangers in my home
Where are the country people, does
anybody know
Do you remember the Americans, where did
they go
Were they simply bought and sold?
Manassas "Down The
Road" 1973
