lyrics

American Habits

Verse 1:

Cognac and cobblestones
Champagne bottle in the window
Scotch + soda
The Americans took over
And they took it all back home

Verse 2:

Skip the Champs-Élysées
Bum a smoke from a poet in a cafe
Write through the wars
Collect your divorces 
The Big Man on Campus cliche

Chorus 1:

You left the City of Love
For Florida and some good rum
A Lost Generation
In the home of the brave
American habits are hard to break
Hard to break

Verse 3:

Word counts and press rooms
Death and sangria in the afternoons
Write through your mornings
File all your stories
And promise you'll call her soon

Chorus 2:

You left the City of Light 
For San Fermin and the bull fights
A Lost Generation
In the home of the brave
American habits are hard to break
Hard to break

Bridge: 

Write and re-write the truest of truths
‘Til you get to the ending you can't undo

Chorus 3:

You left the City of Love
For Idaho and your shotgun
A Lost Generation
In the home of the brave
American habits are hard to break
Hard to break
