Too many lawyers in football, baseballs gotta few
The pitcher got a million dollars and the quarterback he got two
Pitcher threw his arm away and the quarterback burned his knee
And this they did so they could live the American dream

Now there are some preachers on T.V. with a suit and a tie and a vest
They want you to send your money to the Lord but they give you
Their address 'cause all of your donations are completely tax free
God bless you all but most of all send your money

Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
Ya got no time for yourself, ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream

Reagan is a cuttin' the budget makin' the democrats scream
Says, we gotta control inflation, quit spendin' our money on everything
But this years tax increase, why? It's the biggest in history
Round and a round we go where we stop, who knows the American dream

Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
We got no time for ourselves ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream

Hail to the chief, hell, yeah
