Regarding Tyler250's comment - very, very true. And that madame is America - the old US of A, which I see songmeanings.net is pushing in the upper right hand corner.
I think it's pretty clear - after all, on the 'Greatest Hits' album they say that this song was written for America's bicenteniel (sp?) celebration.
But given all that, I agree. I wanted America, but my whole life she's been changing - and not in good directions.
