WILLIE NELSON lyrics : "American Tune"
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
driven 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 traveling 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
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'm
trying to get some rest
That's all I'm trying to get some rest
[ guitar ]
