The Americans

[Verse 1] I like my heroes to be honest and strong I wear T-shirts and blue jeans I try to understand all the cultures of this world I'm an American from the Midwest [Verse 2] When I speak, I have a southern drawl I mind my manners most of the time When you come down here, stop and stay 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 [Verse 3] 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] 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 fortune with whatever you do [Verse 4] 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] 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
