American Song

Well I was in a place once

Where if you wanted something then you took it for yourself

Cause that was the way of doing things to keep the balance perfect

But I, I never did it

And I, I want what you got

And I don't ever want to share

'Cause it's capital and if you're poor, you've got yourself to blame

In such a righteous country

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

I'm never wrong

And I don't ever want to change

You know that I just want to live by standards high beyond my means

Of course, I won't admit it

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

I defend my family honor

And I'm not ashamed to tell you

That I don't care what happens to the rest of all the world

No I, I just pretend to

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song

Just play an American song
