Independence Day Lyrics - David Byrne

Now and then I get horny 

At night you do 

At night you do 

Smile - from side to side 

At night you do 

At night you do 

She'll be comin' round the mountain 

Six white horses by her side 

No stops for gas, food or lodging 

She's wearing nothing but a smile 

And though we struggle for our freedom 

Our need for others still remains 

We know what will make us happy 

We know what will ease our pain

We'll pretend we are married 

At night we do 

At night we do 

Slide your hand in mine 

At night we do 

At night we do 

My bed is flyin' out the window 

I'm pullin' up my covers to the rain 

And down below cats are howlin' 

It's a family affair 

They're selling vegetables on broadway 

A man is runnin' for the train 

Strollin' down 42nd street 

On our independence day 

Rub-a-dub on 57th street 

On our independence day! 

Arm in arm on 82nd street 

It's our independence day

Hey mister, hey lady 

Hey sisters walkin' hand in hand 

We'll be lovers in the open 

We'll be lovers on independence day 

Hand in hand, hand in hand 

Hand in hand on independence day 

This compass points in two directions 

And north and south are both the same 

We'll look forward to the good times 

Come our independence day 

Hey lady! you make me giggle 

We'll squiggle like honeymooners do 

I'm struck by lightnin', it's frightnin' 

So excitin', on independence day 

Uncle vera, auntie ida 

Get so excited on independence day 

Been waiting such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Till independence day 

Waiting such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

And now it's here! 

Independence day! 

Waiting such a long time 

Such a long time 

Such a long such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Till independence day 

Waiting such a long time 

Such a long time 

Such a long such a long time 

And now it's here 

Independence day 

Waiting such a long time 

Such a long time 

Such a long such a long time 

Waiting such a long time 

Till independence day 

Waiting such a long time 

Such a long time 

Such a long such a long time 

Now it's here!
