American Music Lyrics by The Blasters

The Blasters

0

Well, a U.S. soldier boy
On leave in West Berlin
No music there that rocks
Just a thousand violins
They wanna hear some American music
American music
They wanna hear that sound
Right from the U.S.A
Well, it can be sweet and lovely
It can be hard and mean
One thing's for sure
It's always on the beam
They wanna hear some American music
American music
They wanna hear that sound
Right from the U.S.A
Well, it's a howl from the deserts
A scream from the slums
The Mississippi rollin'
To the beat of the drums
They wanna hear some American music
American music
They wanna hear that sound
Right from the U.S.A
We got the Louisiana boogie and the delta blues
We got country, swing and rockabilly, too
We got jazz, country western and Chicago blues
It's the greatest music that you ever knew
It's American music
It's American music
It's American music
It's that crazy sound right from the U.S.A
Well, a US soldier boy
Has to stop right in his tracks
When he hears that crazy beat
He turns and doubles back
Because they're playing American music
American music
How the whole world digs that sound
From the U.S.A
