Mark Lindsay - Miss America lyrics

As a young girl she ran wild Freely gave herself to men who understood She lay naked in the sun Giving birth to what was clear and strong and good Oh lord to you her life Wants to know a joy that drove her soul insane And she'd lead you down a path Through a river love was etched in summer rain Do you miss America Miss America Miss America I know I do She was offered j**els and feathers And she wore the clothes of souls who once she loved She was driven to the site Of a marble grave for a dying dove Rage exploded cross her face And makeup melted on the cemetery lawn And she cried for the rest And she wrapped her fingers round the deep blue stone Do you miss America Miss America Miss America I know I do I've seen her in the forest And she sings the peaceful songs for you and me And I've heard her in the hills And I'm glad to say she's still alive and free Oh lord her loving eyes Cast in ripples 'neath the sun without a sound And she never spreaded sky As her children dance along the rain washed ground Do you miss America Miss America Miss America I know I do Do you miss America Miss America Miss America I know I do Do you miss America Miss America Miss America I know I do
