The Body Of An American - The Pogues[00:00:00]

The cadillac stood by the house[00:00:37]

And the yanks they were within[00:00:41]

And the tinker boys they hissed advice[00:00:47]

Hot wire her with a pin'[00:00:52]

So we turned and shook as we had a look[00:00:57]

In the room where the dead men lay[00:01:01]

So big jim dwyer made his last trip[00:01:06]

To the home where his father's laid[00:01:11]

Fifteen minutes later[00:01:18]

We had our first taste of whiskey[00:01:19]

There was uncles giving lectures[00:01:21]

On ancient irish history[00:01:22]

The men all started telling and the women they got frisky[00:01:25]

By five o'clock in the evening[00:01:28]

Every bastard there was pissed[00:01:30]

Fare thee well going away[00:01:31]

There's nothing left to say[00:01:33]

Farewell to New York city boys[00:01:35]

To boston and pa[00:01:37]

He took them out[00:01:39]

With a well aimed clout[00:01:40]

He was often heard to say[00:01:41]

I'm a free born man of the U S A[00:01:42]

He fought the champ in pittsburgh[00:01:46]

And he slashed him to the ground[00:01:47]

He took on tiny tartanella[00:01:49]

And it only went one round[00:01:51]

He never had no time for reds[00:01:53]

For drink or dice or whores[00:01:54]

And he never threw a fight[00:01:56]

Unless sent him to the war[00:01:58]

Fare well gone away[00:01:59]

There's nothing left to say[00:02:01]

With a Slainte Joe and Erin go[00:02:03]

My love's in amerikay[00:02:05]

The calling of the rosary[00:02:07]

Spanish winde from far away[00:02:08]

I'm a free born man of the U S A yea[00:02:10]

This morning on the harbour[00:02:31]

When I said goodbye to you[00:02:32]

I remember how I swore[00:02:34]

That I'd come back to you one day[00:02:36]

And as the sunset came to meet[00:02:38]

The evening on the hill[00:02:39]

I told you I'd always love you[00:02:41]

I always did and I always will[00:02:43]

Fare thee well gone away[00:02:45]

There's nothing left to say[00:02:47]

'Cept to say adieu[00:02:48]

To your eyes as blue[00:02:49]

As the water in the bay[00:02:50]

And to big jim dwyer[00:02:52]

The man of wire[00:02:53]

Who was often heard say[00:02:54]

I'm a free born man of the U S A[00:02:55]

I'm a free born man of the U S A[00:02:59]

I'm a free born man of the U S A[00:03:02]
