Bogguss Suzy Souvenirs Lyrics

Souvenirs Lyrics

I set out like Kerouac in my 

American car

Carryin' a dream and a road map

Deep in my American heart

But where's those mountain majesties

Where's those waves of grain

Billboards from sea to shining sea man it ain't the same



They got Mount Rushmore on a cup

Everybody needs one of those

For a dollar more more they'll fill it up

You can drink out of Lincoln's nose

They got the Hard Rock t-shirts, they got Elvis,too And sooner or later, mark
my words

You know they're gonna get you



I've been searchin' for the promised land

But it's just another neon, come on roadside stand

Little tin toys that fall apart

That's all they got here

I come all this way to find my heart

All I get is souvenirs



Baby I believed in you,

I thought you believed in me

I thought we had a love that's true, not a close facsimile

Now I don't want your dimestore ring, turns my finger green

I don't want your dimestore love

I want the real thing



I've been searchin' for the promised land

But it's just another neon, come on roadside stand

Little tin toys that fall apart

That's all they got here

I come all this way to find my heart

All I get is souvenirs
