American Babes

American Babes Surpassing strange, to see them on the train coming of age and looking for what? American babes, in the wind and the rain where's the milk or the flame, or something to trust? All in time, will we see both sides, will we see both sides I took a whiskey neat and walked out to the street where a wild man whistled and swayed and up came a wind, from Paradise blowin' in at least that's what I told him and he blessed the day All in time, will we see both sides, will we see both all love's excelling yeah All in time, will we see both sides, will we see both sides and she's lookin' like a wolf now and the dreaming time ain't over and the house is burning down and the forest leans away I am an American, babe and she's lookin' like an angel now standing on the roof saying something I can't make out Oh and she's singin', she's singin' All in time, will we see both sides, will we see both all love's excelling yeah All in time, will we see both sides, will we see both sides
