Joseph Shipp - Free, for a While

American Man

Daddy grew up on a farm, mama did too
Raised me right, did well in school
Small town kids gotta play it straight and cool
Make friends with the bully don't be nobody's fool

I'm an American man
Only wear blue jeans
I'm an American man
Kraft Singles cheese
I'm an American man
Thank you and please
I'm an American man
Whatever that means

Runnin' out the door stealin' shit from stores
Just a little fun in the land of the poor
Better straighten up, get a haircut and find the Lord
In America, son, happiness you cannot afford

I'm an American man
Don't follow any kings
I'm an American man
Consume a lot of things
I'm an American man
Credit card fees
I'm an American man
Whatever that means

Work real hard so you can get ahead
But don't forget what your Good Book said
"That boy don't act right, he likes the Grateful Dead"
They wanted a leader got a nonbeliever instead

I'm an American man
Land of the free
I'm an American man
Should've joined the Marines
I'm an American man
Blow it all to smithereens
I'm an American man
Whatever that means

I'm an American man
I'm an American man
I'm an American man
I'm an American man
Whatever that means
