The Americans Lyrics

I like my heroes
To be honest and strong
I wear t-shirts
And blue jeans
I try to understand
All the c**tures of this world
I'm an American from the Midwest
When I speak
I have a southern drawl
I mind my manners most of the time
When you come down here
Stop and say hello
I'm an American from south of the Mason Dixon line

[Chorus:]
I'm an American, I'm an American
I respect you and your point of view
I'm an American, I'm an American
And I wish you good luck with whatever you do
I start my day
And I'm ready to work
I'm responsible
And I like to get things done
If you ever need some help
Come and look my way
'Cause I try to be here for everyone
[Chorus]

They call me the land of opportunity
With our agriculture
And beautiful movie stars
We can turn our dreams
Into a way of life
So be happy, and be who you are

[Chorus]
