America (Single Version) [2025 Remaster]

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. White Nose Pies
And walked off, walked off, walked off
To look for America

"Kathy," I said, as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
"Being a chicken seems like a dream to me now"
Took me four days to hitchhike from Sagamore
All gone to look for America
All gone 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"

"Kathy, I'm lost," I said
Although 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 gone to look for America
All gone to look for America
All gone to look for America
