“American Scandal” Lyrics
Checking my lipstick in your radiators
Like a couple of cool kids, the hit paraders
The cherry glow of your cigarette
Don’t tell me the world couldn’t handle
A good old-fashioned American scandal
Hold me baby, hold me like you ain’t mine to hold
Oh kiss me baby kiss me, like you don’t care who knows
Oh love me baby love me like Kennedy and Monroe
Lights are flashing, Main Street paparazzi
You got them lining up to watch you want me
Let’s one up the rumours
Don’t tell me the world couldn’t handle
A good old-fashioned American scandal
Hold me baby, hold me like you ain’t mine to hold
Oh kiss me baby kiss me, like you don’t care who knows
Outro
(Don’t tell me the world couldn’t handle) Kennedy and Monroe
(a good old-fashioned American scandal) Ooh like Kennedy and Monroe
(Don’t tell me the world couldn’t handle) Kennedy and Monroe
(a good old-fashioned American scandal)
Don’t tell me the world couldn’t
handle a good old-fashioned American scandal
Now for Ashley’s Performance of “El Dorado”!
“El Dorado” Lyrics
Mornin’ side of midnight,
‘nother state line comin’ up It’s down to the truckers, the troopers,
and troubadours like us I’m out of coffee,
Andy’s burnin’ his last cigarette And the needle’s droppin’,
but the tank ain’t empty yet [Chorus] We can’t stop now,
can’t stop now No we can’t stop now,
El Dorado [Verse 2] Hotel paper full of songs I write for you Highway
sailor, miles and miles to sing ’em to That silver lining’,
oh no it ain’t hidin’ on no map I gotta find it,
I’ll pull it down and bring it back [Chorus] We can’t stop now,
can’t stop now No we can’t stop now, El Dorado We can’t stop now,
can’t stop now No we can’t stop now,
El Dorado [Chorus] We can’t stop now,
can’t stop now No we can’t stop now,
El Dorado We can’t stop now,
can’t stop now No we can’t stop now, El Dorado
