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 want to 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
