The American In Me |
| I need me a destination |
| I ain’t the kinda cat’s gon' |
| Just jump in his car and drive |
| I’m usin' my transportation |
| So then when am I going to arrive? |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The American in me |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The way I’m apt to be |
| And I guess it’s just |
| They’re stoppin' me out on the freeway |
| They ask of me what I do |
| And where the hell I’m bound |
| I used to get a lot more leeway |
| Hey, well now I get a lot more down |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The American in me |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The way I’m apt to be |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The off ramp backed up miles today |
| And the carbon fumes |
| Were drifting towards the sky |
| The sky began to cry |
| And the thunder booms |
| And I’m back once again on the car lot |
| Now I ain’t even paid for that thing I drove up in yet |
| Well, I might make a trade and I might not |
| But I know I’ll remain in debt |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The American in me |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The way I’m apt to be |
| And I guess it’s just, yeah |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The American in me |
| And I guess it’s just |
| The way I’m apt to be |
| And I guess it’s just, yeah |
