Blues Traveler - American Way Lyrics
In the picture is a tepeeI can handle this every dayIm down here at johnnys restaurant, and soI dont care about em lagging in their wayOh, the principles of powerGrow balanced every yearThough I may not survive, its the next manFor whom the crowd should cheerAnd this is the american wayYeah this is the american wayJust roll the dice, and we come to playGive me the american wayI could have come from swedenBut I would have gotten tiredAnd the struggle for my familys life or deathIt keeps my heart inspiredYes we like to face the gambleAnd we love to make the standAnd we worship in the shopping mallsWith lotto tickets in our handAnd this is the american wayYeah this is the american wayJust roll the dice, and we come to playGive me the american wayCall it a travesty or an empireBut I prefer to call it homeNo matter trod the horsemanWill soon become to romeI said maybe the rules are brokenBut traditions kept aliveThere just isnt one miracleBut thirty little triesYeah, thats the american wayThis is the american wayYeah, this is the american wayAll the players have been played and played and playedThey love the american wayThats why we want to stayGive up the american wayJust roll the dice and we come to play
