AMERICAN DREAMS
©D. Brooks 2004


V1
Well my grandpa is a patriot
To the Queen and Union Jack
You get thrown his UK pride
Till it stabs you in the back

V2
My father is an unknown
He doesn't have a Name
I'm the horse that ran too hard
You're no good when you're lame

CHORUS
I'm just a good 'ole boy
livin' the American Dream
I was in England,
But my eyes are to the sea.
I long for for open highways
and summer in Cheyenne
Instead I live this life
that dirties my hands.

V3
They say London is the place of dreams
But you're never really sure
Once the street that ran with gold
Are now black and so unpure

V4
At night I dream of deserts
And the glare of city lights
Anythin' to take my mind away
From these reality bites

CHORUS

BRIDGE
You can hear the solemn angels
Singin' the Anthem at night
I just want the stars and stripes
And a different life

INSTRUMENTAL

CHORUS

OUTRO-Driving solo drum beat
I'm just a good 'ole boy
livin' the American Dream
I was born in England,
but my eyes are too the sea.
