Souvenirs Lyrics - Bogguss Suzy

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
