Leland Martin - American Made lyrics

rate me

He worked the same job

For twenty-two long years

Driving eighteen wheels

Down the road

He was only three away

Before his pension paid

On that cold and rainy day

They let him go

He had MasterCard and Visa

American Express

A brand new car

And a mortgage on his home

Collectors called and treated him

Like he was a thief

And he wondered how

To pull that heavy load

And he pledged his allegiance

And put in his time

Just to lose to a number

On the bottom line

Of a laptop computer

Somewhere in L.A.

O' say can you see

He's American Made

Now the pedal's to the metal

And he ain't slowin' down

Keepin' faith in pride

He never once gave up

He's got a mint 359

And painted on the side

Is his own name

And the words

"In God We Trust"

Yeah he pledged his allegiance

And put in his time

Just to lose to a number

On the bottom line

Of a laptop computer

Somewhere in L.A.

Oh you can't keep him down

He's American Made

Oh he's proud to be

American Made
