Trooper

Trooper - The American Dream lyrics

well I was there in memphis

the day after Elvis died

but I never went to graceland

cause I didn't want to miss my ride

I've been down in Louisiana

spent a night in New Orleans

but I never did sleep well enough

to dream the american dream

I flew into New York city

another face in the crowd

they took me in a limousine

to an office up above the clouds

they said 1 and 1 is three

nothin's as it seems

well I didn't sleep at all that night

so I missed the american dream

I drove thru the freezin winter

thru the middle of the great heartland

spent my nights in truckstops

my days with the country fans

rollin off at daybreak

sleepin in my jeans

well I don't think dreamin of home

is the american dream

HEY..HEY..HEY

well I've been down to Hollywood

well I've been to L.A.

when people shook my hand

well they were lookin the other way

well everyone was dreamin

everyone but me

but I'm sorry

but I don't believe

the american dream

the american dream

the american dream

HEY!

HEY! HEY! GET OUTTA MY WAY!

I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE USA!

HEY! HEY! GET OUTTA MY WAY!

I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE USA!

HEY! HEY! GET OUTTA MY WAY!

I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE USA!
