Disney's America - Graham Parker

    I knew Virginia once She was a pretty girl
    She walked in the wild fields and swam the wild streams
    I took her out one day to the Civil War battlefield
    way down in Manassas where I told her my dreams

    [Chorus]
    But now it's Disney's America a long way from anywhere
    with a brand new coat to wear with a brand name on the seams
    Just Disney's America Virginia she chose to stay
    and we drifted apart like runoff into the Chesapeake Bay

    Then I had a family Virginia, I guess she forgot about me
    She lives near the concrete sea or so people say
    I don't remember much about her gentle touch
    My skin just turned so hard and my feet turned to clay

    [Repeat Chorus]

    It was in Disney's America a long long way from anywhere
    you get what you pay for there man you get it in spades
    Just Disney's America Virginia she chose to stay
    and we drifted apart like runoff into the Chesapeake Bay

    You can't get too excited You can't get too enthused
    From Dismal Land to the Tragic Mountain We are not amused
    Yeah I knew Virginia once She, she was a pretty thing
    She walked in the wild fields and swam in the wild streams

    [Repeat Chorus]

    But now it's Disney's America That's where we collect our pay
    Where we drifted apart like runoff into the Chesapeake Bay
    Yeah we drifted apart like runoff into the Chesapeake Bay
