American Songtext
von RuPaul

I am American, American
I-I-I am American, American

My, my, my, my country ′tis of thee
These are all my friends, we are a family
Hey, hey, hey, despite what you think
This is who I am and who I wanna be
(I wanna be)

Everybody came here wantin' to be free
New York to California, sea to shining sea
Everybody came here wantin′ to be free
New York to California, sea to shining sea
Everybody, everybody, everybody
(Oh, oh, oh)

I am American, American, American
I am American, American, Red, white, and blue
Am-Am-Am-Am-Am-American, American, American
I am American, American, just like you too


You-ou-ou, you got the right
Stand up for yourself, we've just begun to fight
Ain't no way we′re going back in time
Forward to the future baby, yours and mine

Everybody came here wantin′ to be free
New York to California, sea to shining sea
Everybody came here wantin' to be free
New York to California, sea to shining sea
Everybody, everybody, everybody
(Oh, oh, oh)

I am American, American, American
I am American, American, Red, white, and blue
Am-Am-Am-Am-Am-American, American, American
I am American, American, just like you too

I am American, American
I-I-I am American, American
I am American, American
I-I-I am American, American, I


I am American, American, American
I am American, American, Red, white, and blue
I am American, American, American
I am American, American, just like you too
Am-Am-Am-Am-Am-American, American, American
I am American, American, Red, white, and blue
I am American, American, American
I am American, American, just like you too
