The American Dream
Lyrics
“The American Dream”
George J. Cahill: Words and Music
Verse 1
Oh to own a home
To live the American Dream
Never more to roam
You hear those silent screams
Chorus 1
You work both night and day
And lately you've learned to pray
The money that you need
You just let it bleed
Verse 2
You ask your mom and dad
The funds just can't be had
For now you have to rent
Your saving every cent
Chorus 2
You work both night and day
And lately you've learned to pray
The money that you need
You just let it bleed
Verse 3
Your Mom and Dad
We're the last to buy
Of your generation
You face sethe truth
You start to cry
What happened to this Nation
Chorus 3
You work both night and day
And lately you've learned to pray
The money that you need
You just let it bleed
