Letra de 'Car Song' de The Ataris

Now you rest amongst the rust of these roadside monuments
In all their former glories
The drive-in nights that came and went
You fought on hard through rain beaten nights
Past the shadows of state lines
Now this victory dance, it belongs to you and I

Ashtray serenade on these Indian summer nights
Out past the cold, dark desert towns
Under the neon veiled starlight
We crossed the Mason-Dixon
Sang with pastures gold and green
Now, darling, won't you come on home to me?!

I was born in the blizzard of 1977
A southpaw heart with eyes that burned California
Lay me down under the night
Under a veil of the pale starlight
These Midwest girls got nothing on California

The winter sky is weeping
The factories lie in their graves
Like Cold War artifacts
Marching in some ghost parade
We watched these streets of fire fall and crumble into the sea
Now, darling, won't you come on home to me?!

I was born in the blizzard of 1977
A southpaw heart with eyes that burned California
Lay me down under the night
Under a veil of the pale starlight
Darling, take me home
Won't you take me home?

After all the tears I cried for you
All the times I tried to let you go
Lay me down under the night
Under the sadness of this life
Darling, take me home
Won't you take me home?

Now you rest amongst the rust of these roadside monuments
In all their former glories
The neon nights that came and went
You fought on hard through rain beaten nights
Past the shadows of state lines
Now this victory dance, it belongs to you and I

I was born in the blizzard of 1977
A car crashed heart with eyes that burned California
Lay me down under the night
Under the sadness of this life
Darling, take me home
Won't you take me home?

I was born in the blizzard of 1977
A car crashed heart with eyes that burned California
Lay me down under the night
Under a veil of the pale starlight
These Midwest kids got nothing on California
