American Man

He keeps a spit cup wedge 'tween the dash and windshield
 Wore out spot where his hand lays on the Wheel
 Fourteen years of
 back and forth
 Of work and church and honeys do's
 He's a hardhat hammer swingin' won't hear him whine
 Kick some butt, wrap it up, crack a beer high five
 God fearing son of
 pride and strength
 That's exactly what he has turned into
 He'll fight tooth and nail for his family
 Give the shirt right off his back for a friend in need
 Chorus:
 So let's all raise a glass to the guy who never asked
 Any praise for a job well done
 All the blood, sweat and tears standing tall no fear
 He's the backbone of this land
 It's long overdue
 Here's to the American Man
 Flies the stars and stripes on a pole in the front yard
 Picture of his wife and kids as a bookmark
 To keep his place inside
 the good book
 The words he believes and lives by
 He's gonna make mistakes like anyone
 But he's gonna make it right 'fore the day is done
 (Repeat Chorus)
 So let's all raise a glass to the guy who never asked
 Any praise he just gave
 All the blood, sweat and tears
 He stood
 tall with no fear
 (Repeat Chorus)
 This song's for you
 The American Man
