LAST LIGHT WENT OUT IN AMERICA...(C) 2021...Elton Houck.................-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------==THIS IS A LINE FROM MY SONG –‘LAST LIGHT WENT OUT IN AMERICA’ © 1988; 2015 China Co-rs0p Music Publishing (ASCAP) …MAD LOON MUSIC PUBLISHING (BMI) …songwriters—Elton Houck/Arthur Kaufman…======================================================================== LAST LIGHT WENT OUT IN AMERICA © Elton Houck, Arthur Kaufman VERSE 1. Highway 101 hits the sun / But it’s all fallen away/ Broken window panes the same/Reflecting fields in decay…. VERSE 2. You know we ran so fast/ Came so far along the way/Turned our faces from the past/And we just laid down to play… CHORUS. The last light went out in America/Where will you sleep tonight/Celluloid dreams came apart at the seams/And the mission bells are quiet/The last light went out in America…. VERSE 3. Bowing down at every throne/Chasing rainbows for so long/Closed our eyes, didn’t realize/Every thing we had was gone… VERSE 4. We confess belief in excess/Paste on grins and double chins/Going down that road and then/Can’t find our way home again… REPEAT CHORUS………………….. VERSE 5. See-saw freeway double track/A coiled snake that bites you back/Talk’s cheap the Generals s say/Those graves are silent today…. END LINES..The last light went out in America/The last light went out in America….. Note—Original artwork posted on Art Wanted – was titled “HIGHWAY 101 HITS THE SUN”
