I saw a red iron sunset
From a rust iron bridge
In the Indian country
Of the mockingbird kid

Being carried as freight
Through sixty-two winters
Through forty-eight states
verse 4
In an old Chinese graveyard
I slept in the weeds
When a song and a story
Were all a kid needs
Verse 5
Hear the rhymes and the rattles
Of those runaway trains
And the songs of the cowboy
And the sound of the rain

And it’s, "Mom, I miss you"
I woke up and screamed
American rivers
Roll deep through my dreams

And the Wabash and the Hudson, the brave Rio Grande
I was a kid there, asleep in the sandy old water

Our guilt to forsake
The Delaware the Blackfoot

And old hamburger stands
They’re all waving farewell
To the kid on the land

With their jigsawed old arteries
So clogged and defiled
No open heart miracle
Is gonna turn ’em back wild

Past towns gone to bankers
Past fields gone to seed
All cut up and carved out
So divided by greed

And old grandfather catfish
With his whiskers so long
And his life in a struggle
'Cause the oxygen’s gone

These American rivers
They poison my dreams
