American Dream

It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
Lover, don't you come down
Without a sword or a gun
Well the gold and the silver you're searching
Is hidden out there underground
There is a beast on the clock
Guarding against the folk
And the ghost from the river is watching
She won't let you get any closer
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
Lover, don't make a sound
Bring your rifle around
When I say "Hallelujah"
It's your cue to shoot at the head of the hound
Take just what you need baby
Any more won't fit your bag
Go as fast as your fee they will carry
For the greater chase has began
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream, eeh, eeh
There's no catching a breath
There's no rest till your dead
There's no heaven or hell
There's no running away
Yelele te te te te
Yelele te te te, te te te
Yelele te te te te
Yelele te te te te te te
Yelele te te te te
Yelele te te te, te te te
Yelele te te te te
