[Verse 1]
It used to be Andy and Barney Fife
Now it's 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

[Verse 2]
Trailer parks with a building code
Cul-de-sacs and the country road
High-tech bars with that karaoke sound
Uncle Sam gets your money spent
Pay your tithes, 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?

[Verse 3]
How did we ever go so wrong?
Did we get too high? Did we sleep too 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 all was part of my dream
[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?

[Outro]
Where'd it go, boys? Tell me
Hey, hey, I'm gonna preach it's gone
I miss America
