“Johanna of the Spirits” is one of the more overtly introspective songs on Rapid City Muscle Car.

[Verse 1]
I'ze back in New York and thinkin' of you
Saw you from my cab, a shimmering jewel
The drunk on absinthe way you see
She's a great soul in a small destiny
Demystify, yes I always degrade
You swallowed my chocolate covered grenade
But now I see what shark eyes do
Iggy and Bob they had one too
Johanna, what is true?
[Chorus 1]
I stayed in college town
And took my time to go on
My name will never move
Carved in the sidewalk here with you
With you
With you
With you
[Bridge]
I ain't Shakespeare, I speak about what I know
No spirits in a whirlwind, dirt I can hold
Not a hero and I just want to pay my bills
I don't understand girls
Move on, move on, move on, yeah, yeah
Move on, move on, move on, yeah, yeah
Move on, move on, move on, yeah, yeah
Move on, move on, move on, yeah, yeah
[Chorus 2]
Your disillusioned eye
The day the rabbit died
I crawled into my hole
We had no fun anymore
I stayed in college town
And took my time to go on
Our names will never move
Carved in the sidewalk here with you
With you
With you
With you, yeah
