America lyrics

Let us be lovers we`ll marry our fortunes together

I`ve got some real estate here in my bag

So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner`s pies

And we walked off to look for America

Cathy I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh

Michigan seems like a dream to me now

It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw

I`ve gone to look for America

Laughing on the bus playing games with the faces

She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy

I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

Toss me a cigaret I think there`s one in the raincoat

We smoked the last one an hour ago

So I looked at the scenary she read her magazine

And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy I`m lost I said though I knew she was sleeping

I`m empty and aching and I don`t know why

Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike

They`ve all come to look for America

All come to look for America
