The Last American

I’m the last American
On this earth
I’d like to quit this talking
Get back to work

You don’t understand me
That’s cause we are not the same
You may recognize me
But you don’t know my name

I got my old man’s heart
And a broke down Chevrolet

I took this job
Cause they need the hands
I got mouths to feed
And I’m a man

You can have anything you want
This is the land of the free
I got everything I asked for
On the day I turned sixteen

I got my old man’s heart
And a broke down Chevrolet

Oh, you can’t take it any longer
Oh, what don’t kill you
Makes you jump into your car and drive away
If you ever wonder what makes some men stay

I got my old man’s heart
And a broke down Chevrolet

See I was born
On the edge of town
You wouldn’t know it
There’s a school there now

They tell em you can be anything you want
And I believe that’s a fact
But what you give away
You ain’t never getting back

I got my old man’s heart
And a broke down Chevrolet

Guess I’ll vote the ticket
Like i always do
If I can figure out
Who to stick it to

You can keep asking your questions
If you think it’s going to help
Do I believe in God
Mister you go straight to hell

I got my old man’s heart
And a broke down Chevrolet
