Mike Doughty — American Car lyrics

Lyrics

My circus train pulls through the night
Full of lions and trapeze artists
I’m done with elephants and clowns
I want to run away and join the office
Aimless sister, you’re surrounded of Angel faced and that I’m astounded
How sweet you are
How sweet you are
In your long, black American car
And you know just where to find me If I don’t know who you are
You will remind me There’s a girl down in the bar
A flaming star upon her shoulder
Slugging hot pink frozen drinks
To put the foot down on her smolder
Easy, cowboy, what’s the rush now?
She may cleave me like a snowplow
How sweet you are
How sweet you are
In your long, black American car
And you know just where to find me If I don’t know who you are
You will remind me All the lazy days are gone
Still the grind is grinding on Throw the memories in a drawer
Lock myself behind a door
Aimless sister, you’re surrounded of Angel faced and that I’m astounded of Easy, cowboy, what’s the rush now?
She may cleave me like a snowplow
How sweet you are
How sweet you are
In your long, black American car
And you know just where to find me If I don’t know who you are
You will remind me Long, black American car
And you know just where to find me If I don’t know who you are
You will remind me You will remind me You will remind me You will remind me You will remind me You will remind me
