American Mellencamp

[Intro]

Woah, oh-oh

[Verse 1]

I remember hearin', "Little Pink Houses"

On the radio in my first truck

Ridin' two lanes of freedom, ain't that a feelin'?

Sixteen and turnin' it up

Passin' tattered, "Old Glory" on a front porch

That song hit me different that day

It was four and a half minutes

All about livin' in nowhere USA

[Chorus]

Where it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer

And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears

Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

Friday night lights from the very top row

And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road

All out chasin' down the same damn thing

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

(Woah, oh-oh, woah, oh-oh)

[Verse 2]

Oh, yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout a quarterback

Fallin' for a prom queen

Parkin' in a field till the sun comes up

I'm talkin' 'bout a sweet tea

Sunday afternoon out at Mama's house

Can't forget where I came from (Where I came from)

[Chorus]

Where it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer

And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears

Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

Friday night lights from the very top row

And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road

All out chasin' down the same damn thing

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

(Woah, oh-oh, woah, oh-oh)

[Bridge]

I remember hearin' "Little Pink Houses"

On the radio in my first truck

[Chorus]

Yeah, it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer

And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears

Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

Friday-night lights from the very top row (Very top row)

And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road (Old back road)

All out chasin' down the same damn thing (Same damn thing)

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream

That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
