Merle Haggard - What Happened? Lyrics




It used to be Andy & Barney Fife
Now its Howard Stern and the brothel life
Too much crap can drive the world insane
Everybody's singing the jailhouse blues
Don't believe a word of the evening news

Truth that stood for years is down the drain
Trailer parks with a building code
Cul-de-sacs and the country road
High tech bars with that karoke sound

Uncle Sam gets your money spent
Pay your tye you can't pay your rent
Foreign cars selling big in American town

[Chorus: ]
What happened
Does anybody know
What happened
Where did America go?
Everything Walmart all the time
No more mom & pop five and dime
What happened
Where did America go?
Where did America go?

How did we ever go so wrong
Did we get too high
Did we sleep to long
Why did we raise the price of gasoline

I remember the morning the towers fell
I fell back asleep and dreamed of hell
I guess I thought it was all part of my dream

[Chorus: ]

Where'd it go boys?
Hey, hey
I'm gonna preach
I miss America
