My American Dream

My American Dream Lyrics

I always thought that I wanted a long, new, shiny Cadillac

That a real man wears five hundred dollar suits upon his back

I always thought that I needed a big, old house with a million dollar view

But baby, since we fell in love, all I needed is you


Waking up (waking up) to my American dream

She's a long haired, blue eyed, country girl

She's better than a fantasy

Waking up (waking up) to my American dream

And I would not trade the whole wide world

For what she means to me


She's pretty as the moonlight on the gulf of Mexico

And her heart is pure and true as any California gold

I put her on a pedastel like Lady Liberty

Know there is no finer girl from sea to shining sea


I'm waking up (waking up) to my American dream

She's a long haired, blue eyed, country girl

She's better than a fantasy

Waking up (waking up) to my American dream

And I would not trade the whole wide world

For what she means to me


Waking up (waking up) to my American dream

She's a real live, blue eyed, country girl

The best thing I've ever seen

And I would not trade the whole wide world

For what she means to me

I'm waking up (waking up) to my American dream

I'm waking up (I'm waking up) to my American dream
