"We're An American Band"

(As recorded by Grand Funk Railroad)
DON BREWER

Out on the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
Sweet sweet Connie, a doing her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact
Up all night with Freddie King
I got to tell ya poker's his thing
Booze and ladies keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight.

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party down
We're an American band.

Four young chiquitas in Omaha
A waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feeling good, feelin' right it's Saturday night
The hotel detective he was out of sight
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They say, "c'mon dudes, let's get it on"
And we proceded to tear that hotel down.

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party down
We're an American band, hey.

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party down
We're an American band, hey, hey, hey.

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party down
We're an American band, hey, hey, hey.

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party down
We're an American band

We're an American band, woo
We're an American band, woo
We're an American band, woo.
