America |
| Let us be lovers, we’ll marry our fortunes together |
| I’ve got some real estate in my bag |
| So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner’s pies |
| And we walked off, walked off, walked off, to look for America |
| Kathy, I said, as we boarded the greyhound in Pittsburgh |
| Michigan seems like a dream to me now |
| Took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw |
| They’ve all gone to look for America |
| All gone to look for America |
| Laughing on the bus, playing games with faces |
| She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy |
| I said be careful, his bow tie is really a camera |
| «Kathy, I’m lost», I said, although I knew she was sleeping |
| I’m empty and aching and I don’t know why I’m |
| Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike |
| And they’ve all gone to look for America |
| All gone to look for America |
| All gone to look for America |
