American Junkie

AMERICAN JUNKIE
Words and music by Ronnie Penque
Released on: "Only Road Home" 2010

Early in the morning as the fog lifts from San Francisco Bay
Song birds sing a warning as the Mothers watch their children play
Aries waits alone in the shelter of her one room castle
Whispers in the phone oh oh oh her connection is a hassle
Out there in the street shouting her right to speak free
The lady use to be the queen of high society

With her first class smile her second hand style so funky
Well she tells me lies believes in every word
She’s my zodiac sign favorite American junkie
Aries flies so high got wings just like a bird

Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go
Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go

2nd and 3rd verse
Early in the evening as the sun sets on San Francisco Bay
Mothers call their children as the last song bird flies away
The boys want what she’s got the girls well they think that she’s so hot
She’ll put you in your spot leave you begging baby please one more shot

Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go
Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go

Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go
Na na na na na na na can’t let you go Na na na na na na na can’t let you go
