American Car Lyrics - Haughty Melodic - Mike Doughty

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 

Angel-faced and I'm astounded 

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 

All the lazy days are gone. 

Still the grind is grinding on. 

Throw the memories in a drawer. 

Lock myself behind a door.
