American Dream

I got a woman

She’s so fine

I don’t need her loving

From five to nine

I gotta work real hard

So I can make her safe

I show my woman my love

In the American way

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving for you

Days go long

Hours get late

That flight attendant

Made me feel okay

But I got my wife at home

We got our kid to feed

I’m flying coast to coast

On the American dream

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving for you

At the hotel

Wife on the phone

Her voice is a broken, static radio

The same old news today

Recycling through the waves

I got a meeting tomorrow

It’s my American fate

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving for you

I come home

Wife is gone

With a work friend

Shouldn’t be too long

I pick our kid up from mom’s

I fix her dinner plate

My stomach like butter churns

It’s an American waste

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving for you

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard

Baby can you feel my loving

Everyday I’m working so hard for you
