Lyrics American Tune

Many's the time I've been mistaken
And many time confused
Many's the time i've felt forsaken
And certainly abused
But it's alright, it's alright
You can be forever blessed
And when I think of another working day
I just got to get some rest
I've got to get some rest

I don't know a soul who has not been battered
Don't have a friends who feels at ease
Don't know a dream that's not been shattered
Or driven to it's knees
Oh, but it's alright, it's alright
We've lived so well so long
And when I think of the road we traveled on
So far away from home
So far away from home

And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
Looking back down at me, smiled reassuredly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The statue of liberty sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying

We come on the ship they call mayflower
Come on a ship that sail the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hours
And sing the American tune
Oh but it's alright, it's alright
Can't be forever blessed
And when I think of another working day
I've just got to get some rest
I just got to get some rest
