Lyrics

I Watch The Cars

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I watch the cars go back and forth

I watch the cars go back and forth

I watch the cars go back and forth

Sometimes south and sometimes north

I watch the cars

I hear them stopping down the street

I hear them stopping down the street

I hear the sound of stocking feet

I wonder who they're gonna meet

I'm getting drunk inside my house

I see the men inside their shells

I see the men inside their shells

They go to prostitutes as well

Who never mind the way they smell

The prostitutes are paid for it

Alright!

I hear you're gonna try that too

I hear you're gonna try that too

I hear you're gonna try that too

I wouldn't pay to go to you

I'm getting drunk inside my house again

I watch the cars go back and forth

I watch the cars go back and forth

I watch the cars go back and forth

Sometimes south and sometimes north 25

I watch the cars
