American Song

Lyrics

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've got And I don't ever want to share 'Cause it's capital, and if you're poor, you've got yourself to blame It's such a righteous country You just play an American song You 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 But of course I won't admit it You just play an American song You just play an American song Just play an American song Just play an American song [Guitar lead] 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 You just play an American song You just play an American song You just play an American song Just play an American song You just play an American song Just play an American song You just play an American song You just play an American song Just play an American song Just play an American song Just play an American song
