I like my heroes To be honest and strong I wear t-shirts And blue jeans I try to understand All the cultures of this world I'm an American from the Midwest When I speak I have a southern drawl I mind my manners most of the time When you come down here Stop and say hello I'm an American from south of the Mason Dixon line [Chorus:] I'm an American, I'm an American I respect you and your point of view I'm an American, I'm an American And I wish you good luck with whatever you do I start my day And I'm ready to work I'm responsible And I like to get things done If you ever need some help Come and look my way 'Cause I try to be here for everyone [Chorus] They call me the land of opportunity With our agriculture And beautiful movie stars We can turn our dreams Into a way of life So be happy, and be who you are [Chorus]
