"American Music" lyrics
Ian Hunter & Mick Ronson Lyrics
"American Music"
I have a dream - its only one dream
But I know dreams can come true
And I have a wish - its only one wish
But I know wishes can too
I wanna be - faraway from here
With those honky tonk heroes-burnin' my ears, oh
Love American music - I play it all night long
Just me n' records - n' a vivid imagination
I love to dance in the mirror - I practice every single word
And it seems to me American music - is all I've ever heard
Oh oh oh-oh oh oh, its lonely on the underground
I sit and watch my world go round n' round n' round n' round n' round
I sit and watch the world go round
I hear the sons of Memphis - I hear the brothers or Harlem
I hear the Nashville Cats n' the rag time mamas outta New Orleans
I hear the Windy City - I hear a gospel singers hymn - and it seems to me
American music is all there's ever been
C'mon baby, oh oh-oh oh-oo-oo
I love the names of the cities - I hear the echo echoing
And it seems to me American music is all there's ever been
