Willie Nelson - American Tune lyrics

Your rating:

And many times confused
 Yes, and I've often felt forsaken
 And certainly misused
 Oh but I'm alright, I'm alright
 Just weary to my bones
 Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant
 So far away from home
 So far away from home

 Don't know a soul who has not been battered
 Don't have a friend who feels at ease
 I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
 Or diven to its knees
 Oh, but it's alright, it's alright
 For we've lived so well so long
 Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on
 I wonder what's gone wrong
 I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong

 And I dreamed I was dying
 I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
 Looking back down at me, smiled reassuredly
 I dreamed I was flying
 High up above my eyes could clearly see
 The statue of liberty sailing away to sea

 And I dreamed I was flying
 We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
 Come on the ship that sails the moon
 We come in the age's most uncertain hours
 And sing an American tune
 Oh but it's alright, it's alright
 Can't be forever blessed
 Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day
 And I try to get some rest
 That's all I'm trying, to get some rest
