Lyrics to Spirit of 89

On the road to Mississippi,
A never ending road,
And this old world never looked so pretty,
Kick off my shoes, I'm on my way.
N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.

Took a walk down New York City,

And the lights aren't bright,

Never closed our eyes, oh man it's such a pity.

That it had to win so, I'm on my way.

N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.

I can't let you go,

I won't let you go,

I can't let you go,

I won't let you go,

I never let you go.

I won't let you go this time,

In the spirit of 89.

Hitched a ride through St. Louis,

When we got so high we could kiss the sky,

And we knew what we were doing,

But the band played on in the midnight ride.

N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.

I can't let you go,

I won't let you go,

I can't let you go,

I won't let you go,

Never ever let you.

I won't let you go this time,

In the spirit of 89.

Took a trip through California,

In a 53 Cadillac,

And the stars on the boulevard,

Beneath my feet and the sun on my back.

N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.

It was a Malibu sunset,

Love songs on the radio,

And as I looked across the ocean.

It took my heart, it took my soul.

N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.

Now, I can't let you go,

I won't let you go,

I won't let you go,

I won't let you go,

Never, never let you go.

I won't let you go this time,

In the spirit of 89.

(N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.)

In the spirit of 89

(N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.)

A Malibu sunset,

Love songs on the radio,

And as I looked across the ocean.

It took my heart, it took my soul.

N-nanana, n-nanana.

N-nanana.
