J S Ondara American Dream Lyrics

[Chorus]
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream

[Verse 1]
Lover, don't you come down
Way out to [?]
For the gold and the silver you're searching
It's heeded, now they're on the ground
But there's a beast on the clock
Guarding against the foot
And the ghost from the river is watching
She won't let you get any closer

[Chorus]
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream

[Verse 2]
Lover, don't make a sound
Bring your rifle around
When I say "Hallelujah"
It's your cue to shoot up the head of the hound
Now take just fortune in
Any more won't feed your bed
What's first is your feet they will carry for their weight chases [?]

[Chorus]
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream
It was just an American dream

[Verse 3]
There' no clutching or brake
There's no race till you're dead
There's no heaven or hell
There's no wrong anyway
