Lyrics
Follow this dream, look where you're going.
American Dream, rocking and rolling,
Look to the sky, a fortune is calling,
American Dream, money to roll in.
American Dream, American Dream,
American Dream, American Dream.
You can hang around all night, and pass the time away,
Or you can turn the motor on, and make a better day,
There's nothing in the way, we hear the people say.
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Yes I'm ready to love,
'Cause love is everywhere, you see it everywhere.
If you give it all you've got, the wishes all come true,
It doesn't happen overnight, it's really up to you,
There's nothing we can do, but you can see it through.
You'll be spending all you're time, just learning what you know, And you'll be climbing mountains, 'til the mountains turn to snow,
Now tell me is this true?
The panoramic view.
The red, the white and blue?
