Jaime Leopold In the Land of Muscle Cars lyrics

In the land of muscle cars, on the street of topless bars
Came an angel one day, said she must have lost her way
But really who's to say, what gets a girl that way

Dancing under lights bright glare, to a thousand yearning stares
Men would come and men would go, but what did they really know
about her secret, secret soul, as she danced around that pole
She thought

It's not where you come from…it's where you're going to
It's not where you come from…it's where you're going to
it's where you're going to …it's where you're going to

Then one night she met a guy, something special in his eyes
And she knew he was the one, so they made her little one
But he was gone before the son ever came into this world

and mama said
It's not where you come from…it's where you're going to
It's not where you come from…it's where you're going to
it's where you're going to… it's where you're going to



We took life the best we could, the world our neighborhood
Sailed currents maritime, danced down the Argentine
And in her houseboat on the Seine, I was with her at the end.

mama sighed
It's not where you come from….it's where you're going to
It's not where you come from…..it's where you're going to
it's where you're going to

In the land of muscle cars
On the street of topless bars
Came an angel one day
Said she must have lost her way
But really who's to say
What gets a girl that way
