American Style Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you're working for the weekend
Got mud to drive your Jeep in
Your baby’s name is inked in
Your heart on your sleeve

[Verse 2]
If you play a Stratocaster
Your dad's a Baptist pastor
You rock a leather jacket
Then you know what I mean

[Chorus]
Yeah, it's Ferris wheels and firecrackers
Red Corvettes and big green tractors
Happy ever after in American style
Rock and roll and peace and love
And breaking in your baseball glove
Ain’t ever gonna go out of American style
American style (I got)
American style (You got)
We're never gonna go out of American style

[Verse 3]
You got your Friday throw down
And your Sunday slow down
You don't forget your hometown
When you're chasing your dreams
[Verse 4]
It ain't the shoes, it's how you walk in 'em
Spring in your step and a hole in your denim
Cheap pair of shades and your own kind of rhythm
And that's all you need

[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s Ferris wheels and firecrackers
Red Corvettes and big green tractors
Happy ever after in American style
Rock and roll and peace and love
And breaking in your baseball glove
Ain’t ever gonna go out of American style
American style (She's got)
American style (He’s got)
We're never gonna go out of American style

[Bridge]
(Ahh) Oh, woah
(Ahh) Oh, yeah
(Ahh) Oh, woah
(Ahh)

[Chorus]
Yeah, it's Ferris wheels and firecrackers
Red Corvettes and big green tractors
Happy ever after in American style
Rock and roll and peace and love
And breaking in your baseball glove
Ain't ever gonna go out of American style
American style (One time)
American style (Two times)
We’re never gonna go out of American style (Alright)
[Outro]
American style (I got)
American style (You got)
We're never gonna go out of American style
