America lyrics

AMERICA
Simon & Garfunkel

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
