American Dream - Jamestown Revival

Woke up this mornin'

And thought I was fine

Walked in the kitchen

A quarter to nine

Poured me some coffee

Read me some news

When I looked up

All hell broke loose

There’s a hole in the roof

It’s coming right through

The water’s all gone cold

Heater’s makin' noise again

And the bread’s all growin' mold

Songbird singin' in that old oak tree

I’m lookin' up at you

You’re lookin' down on me

I promise you this really ain’t as bad as it may seem

I’m livin' the American Dream

I’m livin' the American Dream

I hate to let my old lady down

This time I took her out on the town

If I had my way, I’d give her the world

Lord only knows how I love that girl

But the yard needs mowin'

Bills need payin'

Phone’s ringing off the line

I got me a list of «Honey do’s»

I just can’t find the time

Songbird singin' in that old oak tree

I’m lookin' up at you

You’re lookin' down on me

I promise you this really ain’t as bad as it may seem

I’m livin' the American Dream

I’m livin' the American Dream

(music)

Songbird singin' in that old oak tree

I’m lookin' up at you

You’re lookin' down on me

I promise you this really ain’t as bad as it may seem

I’m livin' the American Dream

I’m livin' the American Dream

I’m livin' the American Dream

I’m livin' the American Dream
