Sonny took a train
|
Mary took a boat
|
Somewhere it's gonna be better
|
Everybody needs a little hope
|
Ten thousand souls
|
Waiting on a bus and it never rolled
|
So it goes
|
|
No one's leaving California
|
Pacific transit overload
|
Gold dust dreamers never warn ya
|
And my guitar strums
|
I am the American
|
|
I got a walking stick
|
And an old sock hat
|
I've got dirty hands
|
And i've got a dream to match
|
I've got a pocket full
|
Of government issue cures for poverty
|
|
No one's leaving California
|
Pacific transit overload
|
All my friends live on the corner
|
And my guitar strums
|
I am the American
|
|
Under the streetlight, down by the water
|
Don't worry baby, it's nothing you ever knew
|
If it makes you feel better, throw down a quarter
|
Don't worry baby, it won't stick to your shoe
|
|
No one's leaving California
|
Pacific transit overload
|
Gold dust dreamers never warn ya
|
And my guitar strums
|
Yeah my guitar strums
|
I am the American
|
