I have a dream-its only one dream

But I know dreams can come true

And I have a wish-its only one wish

But I know wishes can too



I wanna be-faraway from here

With those honky tonk heroes-burnin' my ears-oh



Love American music-I play it all night long

Just me n' records-n' a vivid imagination

I love to dance in the mirror-I practice every single word

And it seems to me American music-is all I've ever heard

Oh oh oh-oh oh oh its lonely on the underground

I sit and watch my world go round n' round n' round n' round n' round

I sit and watch the world go round



I hear the sons of Memphis-I hear the brothers or Harlem

I hear the Nashville Cats n' the rag time mamas outa New Orleans

I hear the Windy City-I hear a gospel singers hymn-and it seems to me

American music is all there's ever been



C'mon baby oh oh -oh oh-oo-oo

I love the names of the cities-I hear the echo echoing

And it seems to me American music is all there's ever been
