American Tune Lyrics - Singles - Willie Nelson

Many's the time I've been mistaken 

And many times confused 

Yes, and I've often felt forsaken 

And certainly misused 

Oh but I'm alright, I'm alright 

Just weary to my bones 

Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant 

So far away from home 

So far away from home

Don't know a soul who has not been battered 

Don't have a friend who feels at ease 

I don't know a dream that's not been shattered 

Or diven to its knees 

Oh, but it's alright, it's alright 

For we've lived so well so long 

Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on 

I wonder what's gone wrong 

I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong 

And I dreamed I was dying 

I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly 

Looking back down at me, smiled reassuredly 

I dreamed I was flying 

High up above my eyes could clearly see 

The statue of liberty sailing away to sea 

Photos 

And I dreamed I was flying 

We come on the ship they call the Mayflower 

Come on the ship that sails the moon 

We come in the age's most uncertain hours 

And sing an American tune 

Oh but it's alright, it's alright 

Can't be forever blessed 

Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day 

And I try to get some rest 

That's all I'm trying, to get some rest
