From the recording American Dream
Lyrics
OLD BEAUTY MUST GO
Old time beauty, oh, what we had of fun
Times were kind of rough, we were always on the run
You and I, we had a hate love
Heading for the rocky, snowy roads we drove
All beauty must go
Old beauty must go
Sometimes I wonder why you always stood by me
Sometimes I wonder why you didn’t let me stand alone on that strip
But you and I, we had a hate love
Rocky were the roads and dark the nights, weak, cold
All beauty must go
Old beauty must go
The list goes on and on of these times we shared
The good and bad, sometimes I could have thrown you out of bed
But you and I, we had a hate love
So here I am to sing you and write you one last song
All beauty must go
Old beauty must go
All beauty must go
Old beauty must go
Cold and unfriendly but sometimes I could have killed
You and I out there on the streets playing for bills
You and I, yeah, we had a love
Hating you sometimes, I know you did me wrong
Old beauty, I know
Old beauty must go
