Big in the USA

I had a dream it was clear as day We made it big in the U.S.A I wrote a song that I'll never play 'Cause when I opened my eyes the sound went away Can't work a job that will never pay Enough for the time that I'd be wasting away I had a dream that was clear as day We made it big in the U.S.A When you're a kid it's hard to understand And all you wanna do is play guitar in a band Your friends think it's cool but you're older man And they're all having kids and you still live in a van I had a dream that was clear as day We made it big in the U.S.A Worn cassettes, and rolled cigarettes Livin' on gas station coffee If I could only remember the words from that dream We'd be front page on magazines I'm not famous on the internet And my record sales don't pay my rent I wouldn't change it for anything I've still got my guitar and I can still make it sing I had a dream that was clear as day We made it big in the U.S.A I had a dream that was clear as day We made it big in the U.S.A
