American Music - The Blasters

作词：Dave Alvin

作曲：Dave Alvin

Well a U S soldier boy on leave in West-Berlin

No music there that rocks just a thousand violins

They wanna hear some American music American music

They wanna hear that sound right from the U S A

Well it can be sweet and lovely

It can be hard and mean

One thing's for sure it's always on the beam

They wanna hear some American music American music

They wanna hear that sound right from the U S A

It's a howl from the desert a scream from the slums

The Mississippi rollin' to the beat of the drums

They wanna hear some American music American music

They wanna hear that sound right from the U S A

We got the Louisiana boogie and the delta blues

We got country swing and rockabilly too

We got jazz country-western and Chicago blues

It's the greatest music that you ever knew

It's American music

It's American music

It's American music

It's the greatest sound right from the U S A

Well a US soldier boy has to stop right in his tracks

When he hears that crazy beat he turns and doubles back

Because they're playing American music American music

The whole world digs that sound from the U S A
