Jesse Malin › Lyrics › Black Haired Girl

Coming down on a Monday, another work day
When I saw her the first time
She tapped her nails on my window
She said, "Lets go", and we left it all behind

Here she comes down the street
Mountain high and river deep

Baby, baby, come on
Before the summer is gone
Black haired girl

Wanna go for a ride
Just like Bonnie and Clyde
Around the world

I can never resist
My little anarchist
Black haired girl

She's a seven day weekend
She don't pretend
When she's dancin' wild and free
Her momma, she was a singer
And a dreamer but her dad's a mystery

Baby, baby, come on
Before the summer is gone
Black haired girl

Wanna go for a ride
Just like Bonnie and Clyde
Around the world

I can never resist
My little anarchist
Black haired girl

Going down to the beaches
On the river city line
Well, I tell her my secrets
She says I'll keep them with mine

Here she comes down the street
Mountain high and river deep

We'll be M.I.A
In the USA
Black haired girl

Gimme, gimme a kiss
With your apocalypse
At the end of the world

Baby, baby be my
Miss American Pie
Black haired girl
Black haired girl
Black haired girl

Coming down on a Monday, another work day
(Black haired girl)
Looking out of my window
Where did she go
(Black haired girl)
