jimmy winchell - 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
and walked off to look for america
[verse 2]
“kathy,” i said as we boarded the greyhound in pittsburgh
“michigan seems like a dream to me now”
it took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw
i’ve come to look for america
[verse 3]
laughing on the bus
playing games with the faces
she said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
i said, “be carеful, his bowtie is really a camera”
[verse 4]
“toss mе 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
[verse 5]
“kathy, 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
[outro]
america
america
america
