Lyrics for The American Dream by Marty Robbins:
| | | Artist: | Marty Robbins |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | The American Dream | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 78 | | | | Lyrics: | Well the sun's settin' on the veranda
As the ceilin' fan stirs the air
I pour me another
a-what I've been drinkin'
Sit back in my wicker chair
She's still in that big house in
Houston
Where we tried to find happiness
Somehow I know she would not understand
it
If she could see me like this
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass dosen't
grow
People get high every day
It's a little bit hotter ya can't drink the water
A
dollar still goes a long way
Tequila is sweet, senoritas are neat
And peace of mind is
free
Yeah, two-hundred miles south of the border
I found the American dream
We
thought we'd found it in Houston
With the house and the cars and the pool
Sometimes people
own things, sometimes things own you
I won't even bother to write her
She'd hate it down
here anyhow
She can have all the things we had together
I won't be needin' them
now
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass dosen't grow
People get high every
day
It's a little bit hotter ya can't drink the water
A dollar still goes a long
way
Tequila is sweet, senoritas are neat
And peace of mind is free
Yeah, two-hundred
miles south of the border
I found the American dream
Yeah, two-hundred miles south of the
border
I found the American dream | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
