Continental American Songtext
von Hugh Jackman

Once there was a time when this town was so high
We could never come down
When rules did not apply we would drink vines dry in our cup filled with sound
And band the days would please me if you found a partner easy
Then the name game was the only game in town

Nights would end at 6 a.m.
You sleep all day and then start dancing again
And the first to see the day
We did the continental American


All our friends from France taught us to dance
We got smoking around
Friends were lost and found we′re a paradise bound
Some got lost nobody cried
But others took their places always strange new faces
Always a chance to go around

Nights would end at 6 a.m.
You sleep all day and then start dancing again
And the first to see the day

Nights would end at 6 a.m.
You sleep all day and then start dancing again
And the first to see the day
We did the continental American
