American Tune

Manys a time i've been mistaken

And many times confused

Yes and i've often felt forsaken

And certainly misused

Oh but i'm all right

I'm all right

I'm just weary to my bones

Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant

So far away from home

So far away from home



I don't know a soul who's not been battered

I don't have a friend feels who at ease

I don't know a dream that's not been shattered

Or driven to it's knees

Oh but it's all right

It's all right

We've lived so well so long

Still when i think of the road we're traveling on

I wonder what's gone wrong

I can't help it i wonder

What's gone wrong



And i dreamed i was dying

I dreamed that my soul

Rose unexpectedly

And looking back down at me

Smiled reassuringly

And i dreamed i was flying

High up above

My eyes could clearly see

The statue of liberty

Sailing away to sea

And i dreamed i was dying



Oh we come on a ship they call the mayflower

We come on a ship that sailed the moon

We come in the ages most uncertain hour

And sing an american tune

Oh but it's all right

It's all right

You can't be forever blessed

Still tomorrow's going to be another working day

And i'm trying to get some rest

That's all i'm trying

To get some rest
