I never thought I'd be working like a slave Holdin' down two jobs so I can get paid Punch out my time sheet - quarter to three Run up the road for my American Dream Think I was born with these poor man blues Sometimes I wonder about people like you Handin' down orders, sit back, and watchin' us do 'em Don't misunderstand me I ain't callin' you greedy Just want me a piece of that American Dream 'Cause I've been wanting to know the feeling I can't lose Think I was born with these poor man blues Down at the car wash - all muscles and chrome These back-home girls, they just won't leave me alone I push them aside 'cause I've been hopin' to see you Those pretty blue eyes are my American Dream Baby I'm lookin' for someone like you to change all this bad luck I've fallen into We'll run from this mad place and make our own rules Then roll through the park every evening - And take in the view of my American Dream I've been wanting to know the feeling I can't lose Think I was born with these poor man blues Drivin' this highway - it's 6am - road dividers are thumpin on like a train And I'm 400 miles from the only home I've ever known Beneath that satellite signal fire, I'm keepin' on You're sleepin by my side and I switch it on to find how things are going. News man this mornin' he says they're chippin' away Without any warning - goodbye to U, S and A But he don't convince me, I was born to believe In hope beyond reason and my American Dream Baby I'm dirty, I'm reckless and crude I've run in the rat race and I've taken abuses Won't promise you diamonds, I won't make no excuses But I'm tellin' you darlin' I won't leave you 'Cause runnin' with you is my American Dream
