American Dream lyrics translation: MELLENCAMP JOHN COUGAR American Dream song texte and letras MELLENCAMP JOHN COUGAR American Dream tab, paroles and testo MELLENCAMP JOHN COUGAR American Dream Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
I had a face so cute made a young girl cry
And I could blow `em away with just a wink of my eye
I got all dolled up on a Saturday night
Can`t find a lady so I`ll start a fight
Hey but ain`t that the American Dream
But at School the young boys would assemble down in the parking lot
And we spoke of the homecoming queen and all the goodies she`s got
Well those stories would choke a semi
And every dare was do or die
Hey but ain`t that the American Dream
(bridge)
Well I grew up believin` I could do what I wanted to do
When I got a little older I found that it just wasn`t true
There`s gotta be a place for me
Where I can out-be just what I want to be
Hey but ain`t that the American Dream
Some of the girls are out teaching high school biology
And all of my boyfriends they work down at Cummmins factory
But me I`m still out on the streets trying to locate some destiny
Hey but ain`t that the American Dream
