[ti:America] [ar:Graham Blvd.] [al:Rock & Roll 70s -1972 Vol.5] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]América - The Folk Men [00:16.73]Let us be lovers, [00:18.55]We'll marry our fortunes together. [00:21.85] [00:24.83]I've got some real estate [00:26.70]Here in my bag. [00:29.39] [00:31.55]So we bought a pack of cigarettes, [00:33.95] [00:34.67]And Mrs. Wagner's pies, [00:38.20] [00:38.79]And walked off [00:41.04]To look for America. [00:45.60] [00:50.44]"Kathy", I said, [00:51.67]As we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh, [00:55.89] [00:58.56]Michigan seems like a dream to me now. [01:02.90] [01:04.64]It took me four days [01:06.18]To hitch-hike from Saginaw. [01:08.52]"I've come to look for America." [01:14.70] [01:16.55]Laughing on the bus, [01:18.23] [01:19.04]Playing games with the faces, [01:21.99] [01:23.47]She said the man in the gabardine suit [01:26.90]Was a spy. [01:28.86] [01:31.30]I said, "Be careful, [01:32.93]His bow tie is really a camera." [01:37.13] [01:43.41]"Toss me a cigarette, [01:45.35]I think there's one in my raincoat." [01:48.64] [01:51.41]We smoked the last one [01:53.07]An hour ago. [01:55.73] [01:58.03]So I looked at the scenery, [02:00.56] [02:01.22]She read her magazine; [02:05.08]And the moon rose over an open field. [02:11.78] [02:16.74]"Kathy, I'm lost", I said, [02:19.17]Though I know she was sleeping. [02:21.80] [02:24.41]"I'm empty and aching and [02:26.40]I don't know why." [02:29.69] [02:30.64]Counting the cars [02:31.99]On the New Jersey Turnpike [02:34.10]The've all come [02:35.78] [02:36.34]To look for America, [02:40.83] [02:41.63]All come to look for America, [02:48.05] [02:48.66]All come to look for America.
