"AMERICAN DREAMIN'" lyrics
Yeah, okay
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in that trailer, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Daddy drove a truck workin' them double shifts
Momma waited tables, grindin' for them tips
Askin' out that girl in class, Goodwill head to toe
Didn't know that I was broke till she let me know
Praying, praying
For a sign that things will change, change
Had to bend to keep from breaking, breaking
Told myself that I was never gonna stop, from the bottom to the top
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in that trailer, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Dropped outta college, started playin' in them college bars
Singing them cover songs for free beer and a cover charge
Made my way to Music City in my whip
Wrote a song about a good time and it became a hit
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in my bedroom, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Praying, praying
For a sign that things will change, change
Had to bend to keep from breaking, breaking
Told myself that I was never gonna stop, from the bottom to the top
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in my tour bus, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Oh, I was American dreamin'
You know I was American dreamin'
Every step, I kept American dreamin'
To this day, I'm still American dreamin'
American dreamin', American dreamin'
Oh, I'm an American dreamin'
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in that trailer, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Daddy drove a truck workin' them double shifts
Momma waited tables, grindin' for them tips
Askin' out that girl in class, Goodwill head to toe
Didn't know that I was broke till she let me know
Praying, praying
For a sign that things will change, change
Had to bend to keep from breaking, breaking
Told myself that I was never gonna stop, from the bottom to the top
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in that trailer, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Dropped outta college, started playin' in them college bars
Singing them cover songs for free beer and a cover charge
Made my way to Music City in my whip
Wrote a song about a good time and it became a hit
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Layin' in my bedroom, starin' holes in the ceiling
American dreamin'
Praying, praying
For a sign that things will change, change
Had to bend to keep from breaking, breaking
Told myself that I was never gonna stop, from the bottom to the top
American dreamin'
Made for more than getting by, knew that I was meant to fly
Through the struggle, Lord, I never stopped believing
Kept on pushing, kept the faith, knew that I'd see better days

Oh, I was American dreamin'
You know I was American dreamin'
Every step, I kept American dreamin'
To this day, I'm still American dreamin'
American dreamin', American dreamin'
Oh, I'm an American dreamin'
