david bowie - america lyrics

[verse 1]
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 pies

[chorus]
and we walked off to look for america

[verse 2]
cathy, i said, as we boarded a greyhound in pittsburg
michigan seems like a dream to me now
it took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw

[chorus]

[verse 3]
laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
she said the man in the gaberdine suit was a spy
i said be careful, his bowtie is really a camera
toss me a cigarette, i think there’s one in my raincoat
we smoked the last one an hour ago
so i looked at the scenery, 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 i’m aching and i don’t know why
counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike

[chorus]

[instrumental break]

counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike

[chorus]
