| Cruisin' down the boulevard where
|
| Chrome was king in the street lights
|
| Where dreams came true every Saturday night
|
| Turning on the radio the nights just came alive
|
| And we thought that life was just to drive
|
| I want, I want to see the day
|
| When we hold to our dreams
|
| Not throw them all away
|
| Once when we were young
|
| We thought our dreams could be real
|
| We packed them into American steel
|
| Life was like a movie then but it was so damn real
|
| We had a fire in our hearts an American steel
|
| Rolling past the boneyard full of memories covered in dust
|
| Forgotten relics that have all been left to rust
|
| Found someone’s old '57 someone’s dream got thrown away
|
| It makes me burn to see it here today
|
| I want, I want to see the day
|
| When we hold to our dreams
|
| Not throw them all away
|
| Once when we were young
|
| We thought our dreams could be real
|
| We packed them into American steel
|
| Life was like a movie then but it was so damn real
|
| We had a fire in our hearts an American steel
|
| One look in the mirror to comb my hair
|
| Turn the key and I don’t care
|
| About anything but miles and miles of road
|
| I know I can’t feel this way forever
|
| But here and now I got it together
|
| I got a fire in my heart and American steel
|
| Don’t you have any memories that you could never throw away
|
| Something that makes you what you are today
|
| I’m rolling past the graveyard of American dreams
|
| Left to just fall apart at the seams
|
| I want, I want to see the day
|
| When we hold to our dreams
|
| Not throw them all away
|
| Once when we were young
|
| We thought our dreams could be real
|
| We packed them into American steel
|
| Life was like a movie then but it was so damn real
|
| We had a fire in our hearts an American steel |
