| I want a sunrise with nothing in the way
|
| Waking up on a wheat field
|
| With broken, oh too late
|
| Leading out to a dirt road
|
| And a mailbox with my last name
|
| I want to step off my back porch
|
| And walk down to the lake
|
| Where there ain’t no Monday morning rush
|
| And there ain’t no one-hour break for lunch
|
| The only ties are ties of bight
|
| The only time clocks are the one’s we wind
|
| And there ain’t no place that you can’t park
|
| There ain’t no streetlights after dark
|
| No locking the front door up
|
| And no sirens to interrupt my American dream
|
| I want to follow a coyote’s footprints in the snow
|
| Hear the sound of a John Deere with a varying bout to go
|
| I wanna drive with my baby in a short-bed Chevrolet
|
| With the radio playing whatever it wants to play
|
| Where there ain’t no Monday morning rush
|
| And there ain’t no one-hour break for lunch
|
| The only ties are ties of bight
|
| The only time clocks are the one’s we wind
|
| With no deadlocks breathing down your back
|
| No traffic backing up your stress
|
| No talking above a cloud
|
| And the Reno noise drowning out my American dream |
| I just want to hold you a thousand miles from here
|
| Just say the word babe, and we’ll just disappear
|
| To our American dream, our American dream
|
| Ohh |
