American Taxi – Shake, Rattle And Stall lyrics

We're living in her dad's car
Been high for days
We look between the seats
We sit and shake
I close my eyes it just won't go away
Yeah we've been high for days
She kicked me off
At the drugstore where I bought
The last pack with the money that I brought
She said she's leaving to someplace I'm not
Someplace I'm not

She headed north on Penn to score
She's gonna stay and do some more

These avenues are the dying proof
They fucking don't make these nights like they used to
You can come home anytime you want
But I'm sick and I'm thinking about you
I'm sick of thinking about you

It's been several weeks now
The family's getting pissed
Her brothers found me
Lyndale and 26th
I said "I'm sorry boys, it ain't me she's with"
No it ain't me she's with
I told them she'd been dying for a shot
Now she's in some courtroom tying some knot
They took me out back
To show me what they thought
To show me what they thought

Beat up in Loon's parking lot
I got a ride home from the cop

These avenues are the dying proof
They fucking don't make these nights like they used to
You can come home anytime you want
But I'm sick and I'm thinking about you
I'm sick of thinking about you

I'm at the Mousetrap in Georgia
I'm in the 404
They put lipstick on our T-shirts
They took our cash at the door
It was the 10: 40 train home
It was the 3rd of July
Somebody's drink hit some passenger
They kicked us off in Riverside

I see it everywhere I see it everywhere now
I see it everywhere I see it everywhere now
I see her everywhere I see her everywhere now
I see her everywhere I see her everywhere now

These avenues are the dying proof
They fucking don't make these nights like they used to
You can come home baby if you want
But I'm sick and I'm thinking about you
I'm sick of thinking about you
I'm sick of thinking about you
