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!
