America
Passenger Song Lyrics

Artist: Passenger

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 walked off
To look for america.
'Kathy', I said,
As we boarded a greyhound in pittsburgh,
Michigan seems like a dream to me now.

It took me four days
To hitch-hike from saginaw.
'I've come 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 bow tie 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.
'Kathy, I'm lost', I said,
Though I know 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,
All come to look for america.
