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
 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
