Lyrics The Body of an American (Live At the Olympia, Paris In 2012) - The Pogues
The
cadillac
stood
by
the
house
And
the
yanks
they
were
within
And
the
tinker
boys
they
hissed
advice
′Hot-wire
her
with
a
pin'
We
turned
and
shook
as
we
had
a
look
In
the
room
where
the
dead
men
lay
So
big
Jim
Dwyer
made
his
last
trip
To
the
shores
where
his
father′s
laid
And
fifteen
minutes
later
We
had
our
first
taste
of
whiskey
There
was
uncles
giving
lectures
On
ancient
Irish
history
The
men
all
started
telling
jokes
And
the
women
they
got
frisky
By
five
o'clock
in
the
evening
Every
bastard
there
was
piskey
Fare
thee
well
going
away
There's
nothing
left
to
say
Farewell
to
New
York
City
boys
To
Boston
and
PA
He
took
them
out
With
a
well-aimed
clout
And
we
often
heard
him
say
I′m
a
free
born
man
of
the
USA
He
fought
the
champ
in
Pittsburgh
And
he
slashed
him
to
the
ground
He
took
on
Tiny
Tartanella
And
it
only
went
one
round
He
never
had
no
time
for
reds
For
drink
or
dice
or
whores
But
he
never
threw
a
fight
When
the
fight
was
right
So
they
sent
him
to
the
war
Fare
the
well
gone
away
There′s
nothing
left
to
say
With
a
slainte
Joe
and
Erin
go
My
love's
in
Amerikay
The
calling
of
the
rosary
Spanish
wine
from
far
away
I′m
a
free
born
man
of
the
USA
This
morning
on
the
harbour
When
I
said
goodbye
to
you
I
remember
how
I
swore
That
I'd
come
back
to
you
one
day
And
as
the
sunset
came
to
meet
The
evening
on
the
hill
I
told
you
I′d
always
love
you
I
always
did
and
I
always
will
Fare
thee
well
gone
away
There's
nothing
left
to
say
But
to
say
adieu
To
your
eyes
as
blue
As
the
water
in
the
bay
And
to
big
Jim
Dwyer
The
man
of
wire
Who
was
often
heard
to
say
I′m
a
free
born
man
of
the
USA
