Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got my teenage luggage, I'm headed out
Lookin' for America in a record shop
Outside of Lubbock we got picked up
By a cowboy named Joey, he had a hole in his luck
[Verse 2]
Santa Fe's a punk with a troubled past
Sittin' like a diva in a holdin' tank
There's a fire in the under grass, skins are on the run
East side boys have been here, they'll never disappear
[Verse 3]
You think you know me, you don't know me
You think you know me, no
You think you know me, you'll never know me
You're a bigot with a bad guitar
[Verse 4]
It's raining trouble in America, sailboat fell in love
Italian love is centuries, Italian love is blood
Love can be a junkie, love can be a jewel
Love can be a pyramid, Salvo was a fool
[Verse 5]
You think you know me, no, you don't know me
You'll never know me, no
You think you know me, no, you don't know me
You're a bigot with a bad guitar
[Verse 6]
Outside of Yuma we got picked up
By a trigger happy Johnny with a facial scar
America's beautiful, America's ill
America is a blood stain in a honky-tonk kill
[Verse 7]
You think you know me, no, you don't know me
You'll never know me, no
You think you know me, you'll never know me
You're a bigot with a bad guitar
