Whoa oh oh oh

America's sweetheart was not apple pie
She tried to be perfect, but never knew why
They made her a princess, a pale wind-up toy
America's sweetheart was everyone's joy

America's sweetheart grew up on the stage
The years caught in photos on every front page
The [?] but her loneliness grew
America's sweetheart who nobody knew

Whoa oh oh oh

No one asked her why she cried
No one even tried

America's sweetheart is hard to live down
The smile on her face starts to feel like a frown
The party was great but how long could it last?
America's sweetheart got lost in the past

Whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh

No one asked her what was wrong
No one really heard her so
America's sweetheart has been through it all
She climbed to the top and she lived through the fall
The winter is over and now that it's spring
America's sweetheart still's got to sing
She's older and wiser but deep in her soul
America's sweetheart still loves Rock 'n' Roll

Whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh
Rock 'n' Roll
Whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh
Rock 'n' Roll
