Hank Williams Jr. American Dream Lyrics

American Dream Lyrics

Too many lawyers in football, baseballs gotta few

The pitcher got a million dollars and the quarterback he got two

Pitcher threw his arm away and the quarterback burned his knee

And this they did so they could live the American dream



Now there are some preachers on T.V. with a suit and a tie and a vest

They want you to send your money to the Lord but they give you

Their address 'cause all of your donations are completely tax free

God bless you all but most of all send your money



Do you really want it? Do you really need it?

Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it

Ya got no time for yourself, ya got more ba Roe Jim beam

You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream



Reagan is a cuttin' the budget makin' the democrats scream

Says, "We gotta control inflation, quit spendin' our money on everything"

But this years tax increase, why? It's the biggest in history

Round and a round we go where we stop, who knows the American dream



Do you really want it? Do you really need it?

Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it

We got no time for ourselves ya got more ba Roe Jim beam

You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream

You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream



Hail to the chief, hell, yeah
